PONDERING CORE ESSENCE
NUMENON |
A nice day stretched before me; it would include a half day of work, sunny skies with temperatures getting into the mid- or high-30s, and a planned ice session with a good friend on a quiet lake. But first, it was time for Ollie's morning walk! With a leisurely schedule for the day, we were 45 minutes or so behind our regular schedule. The sun had already risen and conditions were bright. Songbirds were evident and actively singing! A couple of hundred yards from the house, I heard it for the first time in 2019; a tom turkey was gobbling! His mind was on Spring; he was feeling it! Later that afternoon, I reasonably chose to wear sunglasses while I drove to McEwen Lake. And the roads were dry! And while the fishing was not so hot, it was a pleasure to be outside without gloves or knit hats. And I did score a pretty decent crappie, so I can't complain about the fishing. The Groundhog had declared six more weeks of Winter on February 2. I'll give him that; three more weeks to go. In my mind, I choose to believe that February 22, 2019 was the Tipping Point where Winter started ceding to Spring. I welcome this progression. I hope I am not too misguided in these thoughts. Pondering the questions of core essence and finding meaning in unexpected ways
