A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one’s neighbor — such is my idea of happiness.”
Leo Tolstoy
This was the morning’s quiet and peaceful sunrise at Pineridge Natural Area about 7 am. Since then clouds have moved in and we have had a slow steady drizzle since about 9 am. Afterwards I made my way to Mugs for coffee and a wonderful conversation with Dan. I will always accept these kinds of rainy days as they refresh everything, make a leftover bowl of chili soup taste even better and a day to journal and read. Such is my idea of happiness. I hope you enjoy your weekend!

Leo Tolstoy’s description of a life filled with happiness sounds wonderful to me, and your description of your day sounds pretty good too. Cloudy and breezy here but so far we are too far from the coast to get any of the rain from the Nor’easter that is brewing off the east coast. However, they’re calling for rain tomorrow. Take care!

I see where you may have rain late in the week. Wouldn’t it be nice to live a life filled with happiness but alas…
