summer season

Day after day it has been sunny and warm over the past few weeks. But the wheel turns. Yesterday started off cloudy and cool. I have a morning meditation session which starts at 7:15 three days a week, and the room was dark when we started. We usually talk for a few minutes after the sitting, and Steve mentioned that it felt like we were descending into darkness, which we are. Summer turns to fall, and fall to winter. People talked about upcoming tasks and obligation associated with fall. Even though we still have a few weeks before Sept. 21st, it felt yesterday like the summer season has ended.
