At long last spring is here! With the cold memories of the winter seeping away like the last of the frost evaporating in the morning, the sunshine is bringing out smiles everywhere you look.
Yesterday my husband and I went for a walk in the village of Ashwell, Hertfordshire. We started off at the Spring, the source of the Cam, and then walked round the village, down country roads, admiring wonderful old buildings, enjoying the sight of sticky buds on young trees and three crows having an amazing game of chase round the church tower.
Spring does have a mental effect on us all, I am sure. The longer days, more sunshine, all adding positive karma to our poor winter-huddled souls. I look out of my office window now and I see the ancient clay tiled roof of the old Inn opposite, and behind it - the white blossoms of a tree shining against a pale blue sky.
I'm going to make this a year where I let the spring time develop in me as well - use my own initiative to improve life and build the business, help the family and find more self-fulfilment in what I do.
I hope that spring, after a terrible economic winter too, can bring some positive benefits for the world in a much broader sense. A little optimism can go a long way.
