The sun flower

The summer heat is now the strongest in the year ....especially this year is crazy hot in the day time. Not a few areas had the hottest record update.

I stay indoor with AC on and see the summer flowers growing beautifully and healthy in the garden. It really looks lovely and cute. The color of the yellow is giving me energy and hope.
The sun flower is the best summer flower of all for me.

I gave service to the grave with some of the sun flowers in the flower pots. They will heal the souls and spirits which come back once a year in our mind.

Summer dinner

My friend made feast special in summer.
She uses kitchen garden vegetable; tomatoes, basil and
mozzarella cheese stakes with balsamic sauce.
It really matches to spaghetti with tomato and mushroom.
Cucumber with sour cream marinated was also cool dish in summer.

summer blossoms

It's quite beautiful in the hot summer heat. The red pink blossoms are symbol of the tropical plants.
We call it ' Even monkeys slip' but the orginal Chinese name is
' a-hundred-day red', it means that they give birth blossoms for a hundred days.
It seems very strong and passionate. The tropical red pink blossoms love the Sun and keep energy for the cold season. The leaves die in winter waiting for next a-hundred-day stage.
It makes me compose lyrics.

The red pink passionate blossoms
It's like an actress showing her beauty in the tree of life.
She makes her dream come true to bloom her best for a-hundred-day.
I'm sure she'd love to die the end of summer coz she is the lover of the Sun.
She will come around with summer heat next season.
Passion, patience, positiveness and power are all in her.
Counting on her, I enjoy the rest of this summer.

voice in the evening

I've finally heard of the voice of evening cicada when I ride my bike
to pass on the river bridge.
There were a lot of big trees along the river.
They are staying on the tree houses safe and happy.
I stopped my bike at the riverside and enjoyed their singing.

Special event in summer

There was an annual fire work event in a small town.
I happened to go by the area where the fire works could be seen in the dark sky. They were kinds of art works both visual and audio.
Not only the thundering sound of the fire works but the singing songs by the frogs in the rice field. It was funny and easy seeing and hearing on the midsummer night but it was cool like in early autumn outside.

to avoid heat stroke 2

Good morning everyone!
I'm very happy coz I have no headache this morning.
It's really wonderful without pain, released from worries.
I recognize it important to pay attention to keep yourself healthy before going to see a doctor.
Please make it done while it's small.
I think it a golden rule.
Sickness is from disorder of the both physical and mental so you can handle to balance by yourself for the first stage. But you missed the sign of the small disorder and noticed it grown illness, you should ask a doctor.
Doctors will give you treatments but not CURE.
It's you that lead you to cure yourself.
I always have responsibility for my state of health.

To avoid heat stroke during night

I felt headache for the past both two days when I woke up in the morning.
I've started early morning walk since last weekend. I found it was very cool and dim outside but getting warmer and brighter made me love the morning very much. So I like to start my day with morning walk with my dog...I make it my summer special event.

I wonder why I had a headache in the morning and I guessed it was coolness in the morning that caused my neck and shoulder ache.
I tried to wear towel around the neck when I went to sleep last night but it was not effective but I even have a slight headache this morning again.

I searched problems about my headache on the Internet...and finally found the good site for it.
It is " You can get heat stroke even while sleeping at night "
It's saying that .....at least

1. Cool your room lower than your temperature to set AC or fan to remove heat.

2. Drink water sometimes when you were awake at night or drink enough water before going to bed.

I hate AC or fan during night so I just going to bed in a warm room letting the windows open without clothes nor summer futon just beside, lying bamboo sheets. It was okay before midsummer night but recently the room was warm by the extreme heat during the day like a pot more than temperature.
I know it made me caused headache, so I will make my room cold with AC on around 28C degree before going to bed today!
I need to hold beverage on the side table, too.
I never want a bad headache when I wake up.
I will report it later soon.

use of solar power

The sun is shining strong and powerful in summer.
Some plants and flowers that had endured over the winter coldness are dying and disappearing in the garden.
Instead, summer plants enjoy soaking the summer light and heat.
It's perfect natural creature.
They adapt to nature and reverse lives.
I prefer summer to winter because I was born in early summer. It's said that you can feel comfortable as the same season as your birthday.
It's embeded in your gene...believe it or not, think of it.

I've been making burdock tea for a year. It's one of the healthy home made bevarages.
To make it, the solar power is inevitable. Strong Sun heat makes it dry to tea leaves fast, that's why I love summer heat.
I make use of solar power for special herb tea a lot.

morning walk

I start to walk early at 5:00am with my dog. My summer time will go on for 7 weeks.
It's getting brighter and warmer as going on the way.
It makes me curious finding something interesting in the quiet fresh air.
I found a morning 'RENDEVOUS' of two crows on the roof.
One of them is very caring for the other one.
Is it the season of love?
