Sometimes you need to throw open the windows so that the cool breeze can rush in and clear out the stagnant air. Doors will need to be wedged open too, so that they don't bang and clatter shut as the wind whips through the old house. It is important that the air must circulate. And as the dusts rises and forgotten things are blown this way and that, don't try to regain order. The time for that is when the dust has settled and both your house and lungs are full of tomorrows breath.

WOW. This is so good. I see it. I see the wind rushing through the house. The image of the forgotten things blown this way and that is outstanding. There is a magic in that image. This transported me.
Thanks Selma. ;)
Good to see you. x
I read this with fascination because this is what I'm doing in my life right now and oh how fresh that air feels and smells Singer! This is a perfect example of why we all write, to relate to the reader and you did that with this reader.
Hi Val, good to see you. :)
This blog has been dormant for a while and what better way to restart it than with some fresh air!
I love the literal and figurative meaning of this...nothing like breathing in cool crisp air!
Thanks Ramiel. It is good to meet you. :)
