The Weather

If you work outdoors you have to account for the weather.  It won’t account for you.  The weather does not ask your permission to do what it is going to do.  You can neither make water nor keep it away.  Even if you gravity irrigate, the water comes from someplace not of your making.  If you want it dry so you can work on your roof or have a family outing or play golf, watch an outdoor event that is your humble plan.  The weather will come without a ticket, maybe pass through and maybe stay a good while.  You have no say.  So how do you respond to your plans being invaded?  Do you whine, complain, fill up with self-pity or rage?  Only a big ego can resent something as powerful as the weather.  Maybe you will have a better time of your time if you can just sit for a bit and watch it, if their is something to watch. Or change your plans and do something else that suddenly open to you in A Change Of Weather.  Acceptance has its place.
