The thing about late blossoms is that they may burst faster and fall faster if there are lots of warm days.  I hope not.  But they are a good 2 weeks later than last year.  In another day my whole studio will be inundated with pink light.  Then when petals fall, it will look like pink snow.

Thought for the day;

We want to create a context of dignity for suffering people. To do so, it is essential to put our fingers on the pulse of our own hearts and make sure our own context of dignity is intact.
