Here comes the sun and I say... it's alright!
Kia ora,
Outside my home-office window right now I can see clear blue skies, bright green brand new leaves, and splotches of pink camelia blooms... spring is definitely showing its face, and I couldn't be happier.
It's been a pretty tough winter in some ways, with the lockdown and necessary adoption of new ways of going about our days, and in other ways we've all learned a lot about ourselves as individuals, families, and as a country.
We've also had less flu and colds going around than normal, and that's a massive plus!
So now we have proper signs of the seasons changing, I'm going to enjoy them. I'm going to enjoy the smell of the fresh air, the fall of spring rain on hot concrete, and newly dug over gardens. I'm going to soak up the hints of sun, contraposed with the still-brisk air. (Brrr.. it's still a bit cold, right??)
And most of all, I'm going to smile widely at the bright, happy colours of leaves budding and blossoms blooming. Ah, bliss..
Take some time to take in the spring air, friends - treat your eyes to some change-in-season colour-happiness. Smell the dirt, flowers, and rain.
But don't forget your scarf - and your mask!
