I’m an academic. It is what I do, what I know, what I love, but since having children, I’ve created a sacred space in my life for pure, unadulterated, kick your heels up and twirl around, bubble blowing, cartwheel turning, top of your lungs singing, snow cones from the ice cream man PLAY. It’s simple to do really. Just follow your little ones. They’ll show you how it is done in the most simple and least self-conscious of terms. Summer is here and the days are lengthening, and as they do, the eternal call of lightning bugs and frog filled creaks echoes in my memory. I think it is time to follow that call again and to play, eat and love. Won’t you join me for a while?
One reply on “Why It Is Finally Time to Play, Eat and Love …”
I always feel like the summer is never ending (as it begins) and as it ends, it always seems like it has slipped away! This post has inspired me to make sure that I don't let even one precious day slip away! 🙂
