Spring has Sprung ~

something has changed

Feb 18, 2024

This morning I walked past a flowering tree adorned in cherry blossom, its petals already decorating the pavement. Strangely, the weather was the worst its been this week yet there was something uniquely spring in the air. The groundhog was right, it will be an early spring.* I mulled over how different it feels to walk around the city both in the day and the night. The exact streets I have visited almost everyday since September suddenly provide a distinctly new perspective. Springs scent trails behind in the breeze. New fruits are displayed both in nature and supermarkets. I hope to see the sun again soon after its recent, short but sweet, sojourn. Let the new week begin!

* On 2nd February every year, the groundhog seeks its shadow. If it sees its own shadow, there'll be 6 more weeks of winter and if it doesn't see its own shadow, it'll be an early spring!

A tiny friend decided to join me for my lunch! :D
