every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end...

a grey, wet day, with no hope of sunshine this side of the brooding clouds, and yet beauty surrounds me.

indoors, where many seemingly identical christmas cactuses bloom into firework displays of different pinks, lavendars, and salmons, they are just waiting for the yearly relocation outside.

the lilac bushes, my perpetual favorites, are bursting out with neon-y green leaves, eager for more sunlight.

they just can't wait to burst out again with more leaves, and soon after, thousands of little flowers with their soothing fragrance.

the whole yard is a riot of the brightest greens. birds add their twittering charms to the symphony of light and colors opening up to a new season.

spring is definitely here to stay. i'm glad it's back!
