June 21 brings us the summer solstice, a time when we can enjoy the outdoors, nature, and hopefully, sunshine. As we enter this wonderful time of the year, remember that you need play and laughter and joy in your life. Find some time each week to play - take a walk and look at nature while you walk, find a playground and swing or slide or even teeter-totter. Go to the lake and splash in the water. Make a sand castle. Watch a sunrise or sunset and see how many colors you find in the sky. Being in Ohio, we are still waiting for the sunshine, but even splashing in the puddles can be fun. Watch a child marvel at life as they explore what our world has to offer. Be Present in your day. And remember to keep stretching forward!
Summer is almost here!
