No one ever tells you about this Poland.  Only the "horrible winter". Except Martin. No one ever told me about the spring, with a coolness and a warmth at the same time. The trees budding waiting for bees, the flowers just beginning to grow and spread color, and the promise of long sunny days, some afternoon showers, and growing, constant growing, into fruit, vegetables, sweetness. This year's winter was dark. The darkest in years they say. And long, longest in years, they say. But it is worth it. If you get to arrive at this and know that the best is yet to come.

  1. Really nice post. :) Finally optimistic. Nice to read this.

    And you are welcome to see our flowers. If not, we have free time during all next week. Just choose a day. :) We can come, or/and you can come. We can grill something. :)

  4. Oh, Olivia you're right! We keep talking about horrible winter and never mention the beauty of spring. Sorry about that - I'll try better to focus on positives!
    P.S. Spring after such a long, dark winter seems to be a miracle, don't you think? ;-)))
