I was taking a walk yesterday afternoon to cool down my considerable temper. Yes, even after my rant yesterday I still needed another outlet. A brisk walk sufficed. And as I was turning, to go into the gated community where I live, this afternoon sun caught my sunglasses full force. I just had to takea photo of it.
It looks so bright and powerful, but it wasn't emitting much heat. I still found it quite beautiful though. And thought I would share the brightness of it with you.
Thank you for all your kind words of support and understanding, concerning my rant yesterday, you are wonderful people .
And I realise that even though I won't pucker up, there will always be someone who will. Bless their poor lips.
Have a wonderful Wednesday, one and all!

Walking is an excellent way to work off some of your "upset" and get your life back on a more even keel.

That is a beautiful, bright sun, and I can't imagine your winters being too cold with those beautiful palm trees I see! No palm trees here, even in the summer.
I'm happy a brisk walk helped to calm down. No one should stress you out!
Enjoy your day, too and xoxox and many hugs!!!!!

I like walking in the afternoon. It is the best way to exercise as well.

That is a bright sunshine. I forgot! You must be in the Southern Hemisphere. And now I will have to look back and see what was upsetting yesterday. Here's to better days ahead!

Glad the walk 'cooled your spirit' down. So it is winter in SA now? What kind of temperatures to do have? You also have a nice Wednesday!
