I was living out of a suitcase for a few weeks due to my business trips. I met so many interesting people, learned new cultures, and ate exotic foods. Every day was full of excitement, and I enjoyed every minute of it!
It was nice to be back home. I really appreciated what we have in this country after being away. But, after a couple of weeks or so, my appreciation has been weaning away. My life is consumed with a hectic work schedule, and I am back in a rut.
Feeling sad, I went for a long walk. Although it’s still February, I saw new buds on dogwood trees and orange poppies in blossom. Spring is here. After seeing nature’s transition, I realize that we are surrounded by new excitements and changes. I was too involved in my mundane work life and forgot about the fact.
So, I just bought a little indoor plant that added some color to my dull dining area. I cooked something similar to what I had while I was traveling. I realized that such small changes bring a little smile to me.
My today’s lesson. Life is dull only if you let it be. Winter is over. Let us add more color and brighten it.
