Holiday time

We’re about to start the summer holiday season, just as it gets hot and sunny in the UK

I’m not really a holiday person

I have dogs who are very important to me because they’re consistent and devoted. And I have a garden that I care a lot about - right now it’s absolutely stunning - I’m very lucky

So it wouldn’t really be great going away

I think what I like is the idea of living every day - rather than the idea that we only relax and have fun when we leave our “normal” life

I see so many people spending their day-to-day lives waiting for the next trip away.

If you like going away, it’s obviously a nice thing to do. But you need to live every day too, not just the odd week or two when you’re “on holiday”

The way we spend our days is of course how we spend our life - see previous post. A lovely Annie Dillard quote
