It’s awesome that blue skies don’t always bring the blues Click To Tweet ## Wouldn’t you know it… Wouldn’t you know it: the day after I shared a web-story and blog post about gray skies, we had a morning with a clear sky. Of course, the story wasn’t just about gray clouds. I told in that story about how we can be inspired as much (or more) by cloudy skies compared with the blues. ## I thought (to myself)… I thought to myself, “Isn’t this funny? Here I am doing the same things I did yesterday even though yesterday was gray and today is not.” Waking up. Making the coffee. Checking email. ## A profound punctuation… This is a profound punctuation to the gray sky story. Maybe blue skies make less difference than I had ever imagined. Truly, when the sky was 100% cloud-free, I missed the clouds! Gray isn’t so bad after all. ## All the usual suspects RB — the pup — and I went for an early walk. From what I can tell, she ignored the vibrant, clear sky. Instead, she was focused (as always) on the deer in the field and squirrels in the trees. ## The one constant is ~~blue~~ change By evening, the sky was cloudy again. Look what a beautiful sunset those clouds helped to make! ### Please share! * Click to share on Mastodon (Opens in new window) Mastodon * Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window) LinkedIn * Click to share on Threads (Opens in new window) Threads * Click to share on Bluesky (Opens in new window) Bluesky * Click to email a link to a friend (Opens in new window) Email * More * * Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook * Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window) Reddit * * Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window) Tumblr * Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window) Pinterest * * Click to share on X (Opens in new window) X * ### Like this: Like Loading... ### _More for you_ * * * ### Discover more from Stan Stewart - @muz4now Subscribe to get the latest posts sent to your email.
