Here comes the sun — unexpectedly — Monday morning

I expected to wake up to cold rain this morning — especially because it’s the first day of my vacation — but instead was greeted by a clear, blue sky and an orange orb rising in the east. My response: to follow wise advice and take a picture. I moved my indoor source of sunshine (my nontraditional “Easter Lily”) to the garden and took this photo. A convergence of old Sol in the sky meeting this fresh young sunspot on the ground.

I hope you find and share “sunshine” this week, even on dull, cold days. Because of these bloggers who wrote such courageous, beautiful, loving posts last week, I’m going to try to be a brighter light.
