rain

I long to accomplish a great and noble task, but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble. - Helen Keller.

Jumpers and scarves and floral socks in the first week of summer. Rain water. Fresh sprouting mung beans. Homemade jam on handmade bread. Grandad home from hospital. Aunties coming, aunties going. Kiva loans. Stories about what God can do with even our 1%. Teacups and teapots whenever you please. Purple sheets on a double bed. If you're here for breakfast, mum makes you a green smoothie. If you're here just before 9pm you get vegie vegie stirfry and chopsticks and Rummikub, and after that you'd get a loud game of Bohnanza with an auntie and a sister, and then you'd hear the piano until 11pm.
