It was actually cool.
Sixty-seven degrees and it's only October.
That's life in Florida. We don't have Fall or much of a Winter. Spring is pretty nice but Summer is relentless...
What a difference a drop in temperature makes. I almost returned home to get a long sleeve shirt but I didn't. I decided to just enjoy the cooler temp.
Everything looked happier. There were dozens of tiny birds - Finches maybe - flitting from tree to tree. I heard the Mocking birds singing away as they taunted the little birds. High in the pine trees I could hear the Red Shouldered Hawk cawing for its mate. The squirrels were racing each other along the telephone lines. The trees even looked happier to not have the oppressive heat bearing down on their leaves.
And I was happier.
Even though I've walked this road more times than I can remember this morning it seemed like a brand new experience. Enjoyable and not just getting another mile in for the walking chart.
What does this have to do with plant-based eating?
Nothing really.
Or everything.
It feels good to know that I can nourish my body with good food and no animals are harmed in the process. (Not that I would eat a Finch or Hawk and never a squirrel but you get the drift.)
So I took a walk this morning and God's world is glorious!
