Nothing sweeter than summertime...



Just like Lady antebellum says…

There’s some magic about summer – the long sunny days, the freedom, the flowers, the beach, an ice-cold drink or some crazy concoction of these.

No wonder there’s summer reading, summer drinking, summer vacationing, staycationing, summer camps and at least million other summer – something. Longer days do allow you more time to take a bike-ride or plan a home-bound BBQ. And then there are beaches and place with beaches which are nature’s ideal lure in summer.

Summer time things I did – biking, river rafting, cabo-Mexico, lots of swimming practice, ice-crèmes, farmers’ market every week.

Summer time things I love – sweet strawberries, water-melon, sunflowers and poppy, meteor showers, watering plants, less TV time, cool-long evenings, misty mornings.

This summer I learnt how to enjoy every season for what it is, for what it offers. And summer brings out a lot on its bid. I can imagine it bringing miserable hot days or immense rains to some parts of world. But, rains bring life and hot days bring a promise of another season. For those blessed with summer goodness, it offers respite from other harsher seasons.

The tan might fade but memories last, shooting stars are through…but wishes might come true!
