Here Comes The Sun...


Today was a gorgeous day in Atlanta, the type of day that makes you forget about how much you miss home. I have always been someone who is affected by the weather so when the sun comes out, I am all smiles. The weather here in Atlanta has been crazy to say the least. All in the same month we have had a snow day and days warm enough for flip flops and shorts. Surprisingly "Hotlanta" has not been so hot, quite cold actually. The locals have said the temperture this winter has been 10 to 13 degrees colder than past years. As winter comes to an end and spring breaks through I am excited for warmer days. My favorite thing about sunny days is that people come out from under their covers and pour out into the streets for free concerts, festivals and street fairs. I have always been a people watcher. I use to dream about being old enough to drive myself to the airport. I wanted to sit at a gate and watch people come off a flight and embrace someone they havent seen for awhile, that moment was a joy to watch. I am drawn to any place I can watch people be vulnerable. Warm days bring people together, people seem more open to meet new people and have encounters with those who have also come out of hybernation. So I welcome spring with arms wide open, I am ready!
