Mother Nature is awesome and amazing. I always wandered in the forests and woodland paths as a child. I remember when my family moved from Brooklyn NY to upstate NY we lived on this 180 acre farm (boy I miss that!) and there were all kinds of forest area and I remember purposely missing the bus and walked throughout the property and found this forest clearing, just enough for me to just sit. I quietly took a nap and awoke to the sound of birds. I smelled everything, touched everything and explored everything. I stayed long enough to hear school buses from the way other side and knew it was time to walk home...all on the same property.

When I couldn't fall asleep, I would pray for rain so I could hear it on my window, and I still do. I will open my window a little bit so I could hear it and lull me to sleep. Warm summer nights I keep the windows open, no air conditioner (as long as it's not very humid, or will use a fan) and just listen to the rain. If I am still awake I will go outside or to the window and smell the air. My favorite scent...The summer air after it rains...i wish someone would bottle that...The mixture of earth and summer rain :)

Well, I need to sleep...And I will fall asleep to the sound of Mother Nature's song...Her rainsong!!

Magickal Night Blesisngs Everyone!!
