Dismay Day

Today I thought I would take a walk down by the lake and I got caught in the rain. I was glad that I had worn my hat and raincoat this afternoon. I wanted to go and look out at the lake and see if there were any boats still docked.but all the docks are out and boats are gone for the season. It sure looks dreary today here. Not to many people around. Just a few die hards like me taking a walk along the trail that goes around the park here. It has started to rain and I really don't mind because it is just a drizzle  so it isnt to unvomfortable.

I really felt so sorry for all the people in the states that got all that rain and lost their homes to the mudslides and the others that had their homes filled with water. It seems that this year we are having some weird weather. Down south they are having their own problems with hurricanes. Some of the places havent been able to recover from the previous hurricane and they are hit again. This has really been a year of weird weather for the whole country. I wonder how this winter will be. I am hoping for a nice mild winter so that I can still take my daily walks in the park. I like to go to the park everyday and see all the different scenes that God paints each day. No two days are alike. I wonder if anyone else realizes that or if I am the only one. I can see changes in the trees and flowers and skies each and every day. Masterpieces painted just for me to enjoy.  

Well it is getting darker and I think it will start to rain harder, so I better get home and have my cup of joe.  Tomorrow will be another day.

 

Changing Seasons

I have decided to take a walk in the park today. I have bundled up so that I will be warm. There is a nip in the air and the wind is gently releasing the golden leaves from the trees as it whistles through the trees.  How beautiful the changing season is as you walk and look around you. Colors of brown, gold and orange abound and surround you. Glorious aumumn has come once again to claim its place in this world. This is a time of beauty in the park. The squirrals can be seen gathering their nuts and acorns for this is the season of gathering for the long winter. The children still come to the park and now instead of playing baseball they gather all the leaves and laugh and scream in joy as they jump into them again and again. I sit  on this bench enjoying watching the children play and admiring Gods' newest painting as it unfolds before my eyes.

Starting to get a bit more chilly, so it it time to button up my coat and flip up the collar and head home for that nice cup of joe that is there waiting for me. God! you do some beautiful painting! More people should take the time to view your  work.

My friend is ill

Today is another sad day for me. I have been sitting on this bench thinking of someone that I dearly love and have found out that he is so ill and depressed. I wish I could go and comfort him and let him know that I am still here and always will be.  Sometimes when we are ill and depressed we feel like no one cares and loves us, but that is not true. There are so many that love this man and his gentle ways and he has a way of expressing himself that makes others think. He wants to resign our club, but no one wants him too and they are distressed that he is even thinking of such a thing because he is so special. Hang in there my friend. We who love you want you back and smiling again. Come back to us the ones that you know are always here for you. Bring that little man too.
