Changes in Latitudes - a photo on Flickriver

            I was up, showered, and beautified —at least as well as I can be— well before sunrise yesterday, excited to go catch it. Oh, and I was dressed, too… don’t want to get so excited that I forget the important things. At my age, I do try to make sense of madness. Not one for tattoos, I have considered (as age related issues may progress) having my feet tattooed with TGIF, Toes Go In First, for just such reasons. After all, socks are important, too. They keep your ankles warm.

As the ladies were still checking their eyelids for holes, I made my way to the beach alone just behind our rental house here in Nags Head. Look what they missed… ha! Most others here at the beach did, too, as I had this all to myself. Nobody but me and the trail of pelicans riding the air pushed off the far wave… they apparently thought this was worth getting out of bed, too. The camera is a great motivator. And while Earth and Sun have been through this dance seemingly forever, it never gets old. This is as good a reset for peace, joy, and wellbeing as I can muster at the moment. “Changes in latitudes...” In such a place as this, I believe that’s about right.

“These changes in latitudes, changes in attitudes
Nothing remains quite the same
Through all of the islands and all of the highlands
If we couldn't laugh we would all go insane”
        Jimmy Buffett

Today’s sunrise was epic, too… but that’s a story for another time.
