The occasional bray of the donkey


I am listening to the sound of crickets outside as I write now under the blanket of the night. It's very pleasant to look out a window by day to see hills and lake, and delightful to listen by night to crickets and the occasional bray of a donkey. There's something satisfying about that.

But what an overall satisfying day. Breakfast with cousins that I don't see on a regular basis. Lunch with extended family who have traveled from out-of-the-region places. And lovely conversation to end the evening! A person can't have it too much better than that. It tells me that all is well with the world. I like it when the world turns out peaceful. For at least 24 hours I can rest.
