Sometimes

Sometimes the sky is a perfect blue and the weather is warmer than usual for spring time and I'm just not feeling it. 

I need to keep in mind that there are times when people I meet are just not feeling it either.  And that can come across as possibly "rude" or "distant" or whatever name someone wants to apply.
But it may just be withdrawal due to a myriad of reasons.  Maybe that person is feeling down.  Or depressed.  Or just received some bad news. 

Those of us looking on just don't know.

We all realize, I think, that social media can gloss over the down times of our lives.  But we need to remember that those bad times exist.  For all of us.

And hopefully we can give the people we meet a little more leeway.

And sometimes a latte and a macaroon cookie can help.  A bit.
And a little alone time.

Time spent with the grandsons can help too.
