An Open Letter To:

The Creator

Okay, I give up. Where did you hide it? It’s been close to a week but it feels more like months I haven’t seen the sun. My big yellow smiley face is starting to have a downward droop.

I look outside my window where I sit at my computer and I want to get a rag and start scrubbing in the hope of clearing up the fog that’s hanging around out there. Then I look inside and there’s a mess of fog there too.

The path I’m on often feels distant and obscured yet I must continue to hang on to what I believe is right. I have to trust and to keep moving forward. Just like I have to trust that even if I haven’t seen the sun for what feels like an eternity, it is still out there, somewhere.

I wonder if singing would help. You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy, when skies are gray………………

I can’t sing worth beans so I’m hoping you’re going to say, “oh, please………” and send me the sun just to shut me up!

Writefully Yours
Annette

Annette, I know how you feel about needing to see the sunshine. Although it drew me out into it today, I walked a very short distance before turning around to get out of the wind and back into our treed yard, where even at 18 below (by that time of day) it was gorgeous. I'll welcome some of the Okanagan's balmy weather when things change out here in Saskatchewan, as they always do.

Pat, you beat mE to it! Where did she find both our pictures? Take my teeth out and the way my hair has grown, she is my double!
Wish I could bottle up some sun & send it your way Annette. I know you are a sun lover, whereas I am just the opposite.
Hang in there heart, It has to appear sooner or later. February has always been an "antzy" month in the colder climates. How I remember it oh so well
Love, Barbara
