THE GENEROSITY OF SPRINGTIME


We have been deprived of the gloriousness of sunshine and even its hugging warmth was hindered to us, too. Instead, we were cloaked by a cold breeze which was hardened with an icy touch for weeks. It was doubtlessly the bullheaded extension of the winter period. Am I right my dear fellow U.K. residents and the disappointed transient travellers? 

When we already rolled out the red carpet for the month of Spring, we had hardly experienced a decent week of brilliant sunshine. Sighs in people's breath with a long face mood were in every place. In general, it was such a dismay for most of us apart from the fact that we also encountered the tenacious frigidness of “Beast from the East”. 

Most of us, human beings, tend to delve more into the negatives in life. What a pessimistic outlook which we should try not to entertain. Broadly speaking, a despondent mindset may not apply to you or to most of us, but the quagmire of being ungrateful and wanting more always lurk beneath us. Am I sanely right to conclude?

For the past days, there has been a sudden soar in temperature across the country. Hence, the efficient yet costly house heaters which provided us warmth were given an instant hiatus. On the other hand, locked away electric fans were dug out & cleaned, and idled air conditioners were dusted off & turned on. Moreover, windows have been wide opened supplying gentle fresh air and the humming tête-à-tête sound of birds, all throughout day and night. 

Prior to the sudden leap in temperature, we were forestalled to feel the beautiful excitement of basking under the soothing sunshine. Can you imagine that for the past weeks, we were still wearing our wintry clothes and shoes?

 

Despite the weather interruption, we were still grateful to have spotted thriving colourful blooms of yellow, pink and mauve. We were also astonished by the developing foliage of strong trees in parks and on the verges of the road. In particular, the mesmerising Magnolias in full showy tulip like flower. Consequently, it made most of us steadily buoyant with inclined confidence to welcoming the much anticipated generosity of the season of Spring.
