The First Day Of Spring

“With the coming of spring I am calm again”

 – Gustav Mahler

It has been a tumultuous August in Auckland, wet and windy for the most part.

But to be expected. That is what August brings. And I don’t mind really.

Spring ,according to the calendar anyway, has arrived today. Sunny and calm!

Thought I would mark it with this image of a flower from my garden that appears around this time every year.

Not quite sure what it is, but it doesn’t matter.

It is a signal of spring, of renewal, and anticipation of good things to come.

And, like the weather this morning, I feel calm. I struggle with generalised anxiety,so gladly accept that feeling!
