The cherry blossom

As I looked out my dew covered window this morning, I was hoping to see a glimpse of the sun peaking up from the early morning sky. London Town in February is generally one of the coldest and seemingly darkest months of the year. But every now and then, we often have a few warm and bright days thrown in the mix to let us know that the harshness of winter will soon be at it's end.

This morning when I drew my curtains, I smiled to myself when I saw the first little buds on the cherry blossom tree outside my window. Oh, how I love cherry blossoms. They have to be one of the sweetest flowers I have ever seen.

These little buds gave me hope. They reminded me that the wintertime will in fact draw to an end and then that we should be expectant for a new season. For me, these buds are the proof of things to come. They are the hope and promise of a new season. 

In time, these precious buds will bloom, indicating that the winter is over and spring is on it's way. So be expectant and be prepared for the new season that is headed our way. I can't wait to see it all beautifully unfold.

Praying your new season, wherever you may be, is magnificent x
