Lunch under the trees

Yesterday was a great day. At the simplicity of it all I found solace. Thank You God. This time of the year a lot of things going on that take your time and attention, work, busy work, domestic demands and yet despite of these, there are nuggets of joy that can be found. Had a late lunch yesterday, an egg salad sandwich. While still warm in my hands I chanced upon to look at the garden at 1:30 in the afternoon. I walked outside and welcomed the warm sunny weather. I missed eating in the garden. I sat there under the trees' shade while chewing my sandwich... I looked up and saw the blue almost cloudless sky and I felt truly grateful. 8 days before Christmas.
