Humans also undergo cyclical changes and tonight at dinner I noticed the open strides, the upturned and friendlier faces with recently sun-kissed eyes, the greater tendency towards play and flirtation as the freedom born of the fertile summer season’s emphases on body awareness and the easy access of outdoor experiences brings people closer to their natural states. A very challenging day both at work and in the living of the more mundane parts of life colored the evening a bit, and yet we always find our moments of connection and joy within it all.
