Mundane Monday (Week 4)



I’m really missing the sunshine can you tell? Another weather focused quote this week but this is one of my favourites that just keeps inspiring you as you read it over.

When I first read it I thought about spring and how it is sure to come just as Christmas does every year. Then I read it again and thought about having faith generally in all things.

Just a little faith that things will happen as sure as the sun rises. That’s a nice feeling to have and does make you feel more grounded in yourself, “deep rooted” if you will.

On a third read I thought of my late granddad. He was a deep root. He’d been there, done that and never had any doubt that things would happen. When I was younger I was sure he could see the future. He’d always tell me to be patient when I was stressing over my degree and that the projects will be done and deadlines would be met even when I was 100% certain they wouldn't.

I see that same deep root passed down to my Dad now. These guys truly have no doubt. They know themselves and they know life. Care free yet full of wisdom. I'm in awe. I watch up in wonder, anxious for the day I’ll become a “deep root” though I may be waiting a while yet as I'm currently stuck in a grump state of mind because I really am doubting spring is going to come and let’s not even mention the word summer ..
