March

March, month of hope.

Hope of some warmth, the beginning of spring, if we are lucky.  This year's winter seems to have been extremely long, but it is probably just a perception.

Hope to be able to shed the extra layers of bedding, and live in longer days.  Hope to enjoy the first rays of spring on a sidewalk cafe, or -even better- to take a walk in the woods.  Hope to see the best colors of the year, with the delicate greens, indicating the new life there is after the temporary death or rest of winter.

Let it come.

Spread it a little

No way one could miss Valentine's Day as the retailers use this day to get more sales (who can blame them?).  Today is supposed to be a 'special' day.

Wouldn't you rather be loved all year round?  Wouldn't it be great if we all would spread our love around 365 days a year ?

With temperatures not rising above the freezing point in the next week, we all could use some !

2012

After years of creating this blog, I finally decided to do something with it.  It is a new year after all!  It's this time of year where the grayness gets to us, and I am not different.

Scanning my hard drives for colorful objects or colorful places, anything but the hundreds shades of gray we experience in these winter days.

Hope these cheer you up as well !
