My hands move on the keyboard but my eyes rest at the window. As I look out and savor this summer afternoon, I reflect on the more than 200 countries where AWAD is read. While evergreen trees are basking in the sun outside my window, spring is around the corner in many other parts of the world. One area faces downpours while another braves the snow. But no matter what, words are always in season.
