Never ending love.
You.

Laugh and the World Laughs With You
One of my favorite quotes is from Ralph Waldo Emerson, "Earth laughs in flowers" from the poem Hamatreya. The quote is taken out of context of the poem; but still, I like the imagery. This got me to thinking of other ways in which the earth expresses itself.
If "earth laughs in flowers" then it rejoices with gleeful jubilation with sunshine. It giggles with rain. The earth howls during windstorms, obviously. It roars with hurricanes, shrieks with tornadoes, and shouts with thunder.
Then there are days like today. On these days, when it sleets and snows on APRIL 24 , earth guffaws... loudly...at us, not with us.
I think my brother and his wife, currently vacationing at Disneyworld, are guffawing along with earth.
