Summer Sun
by Robert Louis Stevenson

Great is the sun, and wide he goes
Through empty heaven with repose;
And in the blue and glowing days
More thick than rain he showers his rays.

Though closer still the blinds we pull
To keep the shady parlour cool,
Yet he will find a chink or two
To slip his golden fingers through.

The dusty attic spider-clad
He, through the keyhole, maketh glad;
And through the broken edge of tiles
Into the laddered hay-loft smiles.

Meantime his golden face around
He bares to all the garden ground,
And sheds a warm and glittering look
Among the ivy's inmost nook.

Above the hills, along the blue,
Round the bright air with footing true,
To please the child, to paint the rose,
The gardener of the World, he goes.

August is the eighth month of the year in the Gregorian Calendar and one of seven Gregorian months with the length of 31 days. August begins (astrologically) with the sun in the sign of Leo and ends in the sign of Virgo. Astronomically speaking, the sun begins in the constellation of Cancer and ends in the constellation of Leo. August was named in honor of Caesar Augustus. The month reputedly has 31 days because Augustus wanted as many days as Julius Caesar's July. Augustus placed the month where it is because that is when Cleopatra died. Before Augustus renamed August, it was called Sextilis in Latin, since it was the sixth month in the Roman calendar which started in March. In the pagan wheel of the year August begins at or near Lughnasadh in the northern hemisphere and Imbolc in the southern hemisphere.
August begins on the same day of the week as February in a leap year.
August's flower is the poppy.
August's birthstone is the peridot.

We are what we think.
All that we are, arises with our thoughts.
With our thoughts we make the world.

Speak or act with a pure mind
And happiness will follow you
As your shadow, unshakable.

How can a troubled mind understand the way ?
Your worst enemy cannot harm you
as much as your own thoughts unguarded.

But once mastered,
No one can help you as much,
Not even your father or your mother.
Buddha
~
That very last little bit -- not even your father or mother -- tells us something that we often forget;
we are born in love. Our parents love us, even if they don't do it perfectly or even well enough to mark
our lives in any positive way. It was a spark of love, of warmth and desire, that brought us onto this plane.
It's love that defines us even if that is not our experience, here. It's the energy that lifts us, assists us,
heals us -- and we are on a mission to love ourselves back into the garden, all together, hand in hand. - Eric

I feel good to be where I am and where I live now.
My feeling good does not depend on the people I am with nor on the place where I live.
My feeling good is a space within myself which is always present.
I carry it everywhere I go, therefore I am free and contented wherever I am.
Dharma

it's time to stop giving yourself lame excuses to not
make love, make art or make a difference. - Eric

There are fine things which you mean to do some day,
under what you think will be more favorable circumstances.
But the only time that is surely yours is the present, hence this
is the time to speak the word of appreciation and sympathy, to
do the generous deed, to forgive the fault of a thoughtless friend,
to sacrifice self a little more for others. Today is the day in which
to express your noblest qualities of mind and heart, to do at least
one worthy thing which you have long postponed, and to use your
God-given abilities for the enrichment of someone less fortunate.
Today you can make your life - significant and worthwhile.
The present is yours to do with as you will.
