As July begins we enter into what are known as the "Dog Days of Summer". Around here it is the continually boring day after day of excessive heat, It is not that the days are not beautiful and picturesque but that the heat just seems to knock you down with its intensity. Looking out from inside an air conditioned building it looks like an ideal day to go out and enjoy the sunshine and play in the park. However, five minutes after going outside you begin to wilt.
I'm a firm believer in keeping hydrated and drinking lots of fluids but, in the "Dog Days of Summer" it seems all your reserves are sapped from within you in just minutes. Now you begin to regret leaving those comfortable confines of that wonderfully cool building so you retreat from the abominable heat and return to the luxuriantly cool sanctuary of your building. You choose to stay here even tho you are bored out of your mind. You wait day after day til the temperature falls below 90 degrees, when it becomes bearable again. You have just created "Cabin Fever", a Winter affliction brought about by staying indoors till the weather warms up enough to go out side and enjoy it. "Only in America" have we been blessed with so many wonderful creature comforts that we can sit around and complain about the weather from a comfortable living room with all it's conveniences while our armed forces are out in the most extreme conditions imaginable protecting our freedom to sit around and complain about the weather. Atlantis Oh Atlantis would that you could have been so blessed.
Strive hard to make today better than yesterday and with equal measure strive to make tomorrow better than today, if we are blessed with tomorrow as we have been with today. Give love,it is the cheapest, most priceless gift of all.
