Sundowners

A little g&t time.

Each day deserves a bit of time for reflection. One might think I mean by prayer or meditation – which is great – but all I’m really talking about is winding up the day with some positive thoughts and looking forward to tomorrow. This is nice to do at sunset, when you’ve had a busy day and the diminishing daylight is telling you to stop. All of these marvellous colours are saying, ‘here, take a load off, look at me.’ So, you look, take a deep breath in, and relax.

If you’re lucky, you’ll have some friends around to share it with. If you’re smart, then you will have prepared some cheese and crackers and opened up some wine. But the evening has only just begun so go slow. Think about the day, wonder about the next day, and most importantly, plan what you’ll be having for dinner.

This works well with a cuppa tea, too.
