Let me tell you about the wind…
“There is a whirlwind in southern Morocco, the aajej, against which the fellahin defend themselves with knives. There is the africo, which has at times reached into the city of Rome. The alm, a fall wind out of Yugoslavia. The arifi, also christened aref or rifi, which scorches with numerous tongues. These are permanent winds that live in the present tense.
Wīnd and Wind by Ana Perches
Wind, a verb, with a long i, rhymes with bind, sounds like kind.
The new theme is “The Wind.”
I try to find us themes that can be seen from the metaphorical to the literal. Here are some ideas that come to mind for me.
The winds of autumn.
The winds of change.
The fire winds.
The winds of the desert. The Sirocco (Katie, you may experience this in Barcelona.)
The winds of war.
The Winds of Winter. (The next book planned by George R.R. Martin, a new Game of Thrones book).
Wind mill.
Breath, breathless.

My initial thoughts on “A Thousand Mornings.”
I am building a practice of waking up early. It is a time when I can meet myself and hear myself. It is a time when all else is quiet and calm and my spirit can be heard before the chatter of children, ego, and before to-do lists fill the soundscape of my day.
