Don’t you just love it? I know I do! You’ve just finished mowing the lawns and tidying the garden and the soft rain starts to fall. Perfect timing! I sit inside with the doors open, listening to the rain on the iron roof thinking how fortunate we are to live in a rainforest area that actually does have rain and one of the lucky areas of the country not to be in drought condition at the moment. The frogs have begun their excited communications around the garden, they too love the sudden pleasure of the rain.
Its tucked away for a few minutes after the mainstream news each night – the weather – and yet our whole wellbeing revolves around it. There doesn’t seem to be a day goes past without reports of some severe weather related incident somewhere in the world. Its scary to watch the loss of life, the loss of infrastructure and the loss of all important food crops. To watch and know we are directly contributing to these violent weather incidents.
Forget global warming – its chaotic climate change – and its coming to a theatre near you !!!!
The waxeyes are hopping from branch to branch on the tree outside my window sipping the raindrops from the leaves.
Its 23C outside, the day’s work is done. Everthing is green and washed. The air smells devine!
