It's been a drab, gloomy old winter. What we need is a little pick-me-up; a little color in the midst of all of the dreariness. Something red! Something fresh! A little reminder that spring is just around the corner.
Isn't it amazing what a bunch of flowers can do for your spirits?
I'm so tired of my old brown sofa, but when I place a vase of tulips in front of it, they seem to bring vibrance and life to the place!
I prefer simple, inexpensive posies; like tulips, daisies, or a sunflower or two. Even a bouquet of greenery will do. Just something to bring the outdoors inside.
Is there some little thing that gives you a boost in the winter months? Perhaps a manicure, searchings for treasures at the thrift store, or knitting a cozy scarf?
In the midst of winter, I found there was within me,
an invincible summer.
