When there is one Spring-like day in New York City, all the days that came before it and all the days that will come after it seem to disappear from the memory. Bright, long floral dresses emerge into the light. Sunglasses accompany smiles. Pants are rolled up with nothing left between it and the shoes supporting your feet.
No one remembers that yesterday it rained. No one wants to consult the iPhone for the forecast of tomorrows change. We live in that moment, taking advantage of every thing that can be done. Holding on for dear life to the traces of happiness that have shone their heads this day.
And with that Spring-like day comes unexpected hope, excitement, and anticipation. Something inside tells you things are on the up and up. You never know what will happen...you realize that all things in life, like the unexpected sun, will come when you least expect them to. One moment gray, and the next, you are filled with the knowledge that things could change at the drop of a hat. You trust and become confident that the status quo only exists because you let it. You have allowed things to stay a certain way. But only you have the capacity to then change that. Whirlwind of colors and possibilities.
These days are natures way of telling us that beautiful things are coming our way. I guess we needed the darkness of winter to appreciate the slice of the sun and get from it everything it has to offer.
