Gullible, Once upon a Time!: Seasons

When I was growing up a far as I can remember the sun always shines over the mountain, I was not sure the direction where the sun rises. I did not know directions East, West, North , South. It was about 2nd or 3rd grade I believe that we touch the subject, Geography! It took my brain awhile to connect certain directions. As first born in the family the direction was, before the sun comes up I have to be up and make sure that rice is on top of an open fire. My siblings need to be awake and up and made sure that everything is ready to start the day. The training started when I was 5 yrs. old. I was 8 when I really took that responsibility seriously!

Now sitting in my own home, where rocket of noises I here from a road construction outside, feeling the seasons in my bones and it made me realized, I am alive and well! I feel the freezing temperature and it is winter! A week ago I was in the Tropics, lazily enjoying the warmth of the sun and the sounds of the ocean waves as I meditate a minute or two!
I can picture hilltop home facing South, and in my minds eye I am looking at the vast ocean ahead I inhale fresh salt air slowly and as I slowly exhaling the music that the village wilingly shares as they wake up in their own relaxed comforting pace. The gentle music that the waves offers reminds me of my birth home.

There are three seasons in Aticama the hot season, the rainy season and the perfect season in between! In my opinion! I am fortunate to have experienced many seasons in my life...
