I
felt really unsettled last night. I guess it was just because of how
blustery it was outside. Worrying about stuff outside my control.
Wondering how the land would lie come morning. I realise I quite like
change – I'm the sort of person who deliberately chooses different
roads to see if they'll get me home a new way – I love to be in
places I've never been before. And yet as well as exhilarating,
change is also scary. And so I opened my curtains with a little
trepidation this morning – would I find tiles from the roof that
I'd have to deal with? Paper from my recycling bin in need of
rounding up?
I'm
often interested in the interaction of people and the world – and
that includes the weather. My favourite kind of geography is the
human social kind, looking at how our environment impacts upon
people, and vice versa. I sometimes think people are missing out on
connecting more deeply when talk is “just” about the weather. But
where we live and all that comes with that affects us all – so I
shall try and listen with compassion today. And I hope you enjoy whatever weather you have.
