Celebrating the First Day of Summer - More Time for FUN! Posted Jun 21, 2009 12:15 PM
1 Attachment 42026751_49298439.celebratingSummer.jpg (24.9 K) Today, in the United States and northward, we are celebrating the first day of summer. Today, June 21st, is the longest day of the year with approximately 14 l/2 hours of daylight, reason enough to celebrate! To children, the first day of summer may mean more time to play, visit friends and go to the beach. To adults today may mean time to settle the final details for the family's summer vacation. To business owners it may mean a little more down time. To University students it may mean time to find a part-time job or time for easy travel or 'escape'. For each person, the first day of summer has a unique and personal meaning. Regardless of how the first day of summer strikes each of you, there is usually a feeling of more freedom, more relaxation, more exploration, more travel, getting together more often with friends and More Time For FUN!!! Let us utilize today and the rest of our summer days for more fun - in every way. We can begin today, Fathers Day, to experience more fun, more relaxation, more humor, more joy. For myself, I intend to plan one special thing I will do each week to have fun and enjoy myself - either alone or with family and/or friends. What will you do with More Time for FUN?

Hi Ritjua,

It is hot fun in the summertime!
I am ready for it, just think of the
long hot summer day, lots of picnics,
watermelon, all kinds of delicious fruits
to eat. I love Chilton County Peaches
down here in Alabama, they are so good!
Also the plums, cataloupes, honeydew melons,
just thinking of all this good eating makes
me feel good! I enjoy just reading a good
book in my den along, or writing a good
poem. or either dancing to some good
music with family and friends outside
on those long summer nites, with the
bar-b-cue grill going, maybe some good
ole steaks, grilled corn, bar-b-cue, the
works, yes this is what happy fun in the
summertime means to me. Oh and by
the way, exercising all of this food off of
me is another fun thing to do in the summertime
, running around the park, It is so much fun!
Thanks for writing this blog.

Let's do it Stephanie!
Our world would be a happier place! :-D

Hi Rijuta,
We all need to add a little more fun and enjoy ourselves with family and friends.

Thanks for sharing :-p

Your soul-power sister :-D

Marilyn, love your original perspective on the summer solstice: "a time to look back on what spring's extra growth spurt of energy has helped me accomplish, and be thankful, before exhaling that long breath of satisfaction and putting my mind to how it can be brought to blossom and fruition".

As an artist and photographer, I can imagine your exhilaration at being outdoors and enjoying the indescribable beauty and surprises of Mother Nature. :-D

Thanking you for your thoughts!

For me, the summer solstice is a time to look back on what spring's extra growth spurt of energy has helped me accomplish, and be thankful, before exhaling that long breath of satisfaction and putting my mind to how it can be brought to blossom and fruition.

My plans are to take my brand new bicycle along the trail as often as I can, and enjoy the energy of the country air; to spend as much time as possible working outside on my patio instead of inside at my desk (thank you wireless technology!); to just breathe in the smells of summer and soak up its glorious colours!

Dear Dr. Sugar and Dear Linda Holden,

Both of my dear friends have obviously taken in the first day of summer at the cellular level! :-D

Can you feel their JOY, their sense of FREEDOM, their NURTURING of SELF, the Loving Inclusion of their FAMILIES, their sense of MERRIMENT and their OPENNESS and WELCOMING of what is.

Thank you for adding to the joy of the day dearest BraveHearts!!! :-D

Love,
