God Waking Up

What is laughter?  What is laughter?
It is God waking up!
It is the sun poking his sweet head from behind a cloud.

This is a poem by Hafiz.  He’s Persian so it’s translated.  Things lose meaning often when translated. , but I like the image of God laughing.  So much better than God crying; however, I have laughed til tears streamed down my face. The sun is shining brightly today.  God has just heard one of Clayton’s jokes?  Clayton can always make me laugh!  

A friend took this photo.  I think it’s a dark-eyed junco.  It gives me a calm, serene feeling.

Everyone seems is complaining about Wordle.  Well, don’t play then.  An easy word got me.  I think the word was SHAME.  Shame on me.  I thought— this is too easy. Too many possibilities.   Then today.  I didn’t know what the word meant.  Should I complain or look it up and grow my vocabulary?  It’s very fitting again.  To swill can mean to take a big swig like beer.  You know, to be a hog about something.  It’s all about me in today’s world.  How selfish we are.

No complaints here about Wordle - I look forward to playing each day.
When I see a sunrise I like to think that it is God saying good morning to me.:)
