Don’t you just love summer?  It may be winding down, but there’s still the smell of fresh flowers in the air, birds singing their songs, and glorious, warm days to soak up the sun. 

Well, maybe not all glorious, as I recall throwing my hands and body around this morning as I was running away from a wasp that was chasing me in the front yard!  I’m sure that was a sight to see – hopefully no one was watching!  I could tell this wasp was not happy with me.  I must have been disturbing his personal space or his objectives for the day.  Geez, don’t know why he had to be so cranky! 
I did manage to escape and waited awhile before continuing my own objectives, which was trimming the shrubs.  Mission accomplished -- checked that off my list of things to do for this Saturday morning. 
You know, life will always have setbacks.  It’s how we deal with them that matter.  We have to face our challenges and focus on the good things, and put the unpleasant behind us. 
I think we can take this approach with anything in life.  Focus on the beauty around you.  Be thankful for what you have, and let these thoughts dominate your life – not the negative, bad, or even scary moments you may encounter. 
So tackle whatever you need to do, face your obstacles and find a solution.  Then don’t forget to take time to enjoy the beauty of summer as well.  It won’t last forever, so we better enjoy every minute, before the next chapter begins!
