The cicadas are out, a gentle breeze is moving through, and today marks the summer solstice — the longest day of the year.

Sunlight stretches across the land and everything grows freely. The breeze carries the scent of lotus blossoms; the fields are deep green with summer growth.

As the heat builds and the days get long, take it slow. Enjoy something cool, catch the evening breeze, and make the most of the season.

Wishing everyone a peaceful, easy summer.
