Here comes spring, the long awaited season…

Where you take off your heavy winter clothes and put on your flip flops. Where you feel free to run at the park, go for extra long walks of for a quiet bicycle ride.  The time when I can fully enjoy my morning cup of coffee outside, alone with my (yes, mine) birds.

I just love those ten minutes in my day…  The ones we spend together at the school bus stop.  In these ten minutes I get to know you a little better every day.  In these ten minutes we reinvent the world.. We create one of our own.

I am not what I was yesterday,
God knows my name.
I am made in a smooth and beautiful way,
And full of flame.

The color of corn are my pretty wings,
My flower is blue.
I kiss its topmost pearl, it swings
And I swing too.

I dance above the tawny grass
In the sunny air,
So tantalized to have to pass
Love everywhere.

Well, if you know me just a little, you know I have a passion for vintage stuff, antiques even.  Unfortunately (or fortunately, the hubby would say)  my wallet stops me from hoarding all of those treasures I find.  I could spend daily on stuff, now that we have access to Ebay and Etsy,  and that everyone is ready to throw these pieces away, spending too much on them could be so easy.   It’s great that I still have enough self-control to resist temptation most of the times.  

One year has gone by today…  One year since you left…  It still seems unreal some days,  though I’ll never get over it,  I think I’ll get through it.   Life is different now and you taught me how to care and to be compassionate, how to give without expecting anything in return,  so with that, I should be good to go my own way.  With your example, I should be able to face almost anything life throws at me.   Even if I would prefer to do so with you by my side, as my ally, anchor and confident, I’ll get through it.  We all have to.  But I do miss you every day…
