Joy of Visiting

The altered schedule of summer brings more flexibility to our calendars as school events conclude and business and non-profit organizations attempt to honor the vacation season by planning major events during the other nine months of the year.  I'm reminded of my childhood summers when the joy of visiting was perfected by my grandparents. No one was ruled by the clock.  Relatives of all ages came and went, fluidly joining the camaraderie. 

Amidst the hustle and bustle of daily living, we could all benefit by embracing the simple joys of visiting with those we cherish.  Summer vacations, "staycations", free evenings and weekends provide the opportunity to recharge our batteries and re-energize our relationships.
