Spring, is that you?

 

If you’re looking out the window currently, you might not believe me.

But did you witness yesterday?

One of the sunniest, most perfect days that Sydney had to offer lately.

Remember when we were excited a few short months ago about warm chunky knits, hot tea, snuggling inside with a good book, or just snuggling in general. We took for granted what we were going to miss – the smell of coconut sunscreen, the warm sun on your back with enough breeze to keep you cool, breaking back in those thongs, hello blisters! Walking places because why would you drive when it’s so lovely outside, dining outdoors with friends and taking your sweet time. There was a taste of Spring yesterday, and I liked it!

We constantly read posts, instagrams, quotes etc about the powers of positive thinking, changing your perception for a better outlook, spring clean to relieve stress, create a sense of accomplishment etc however when you read this, on a rainy day, with no sun in sight, no motivation to go out in the cold – it’s a little hard to take it all on board and want to put it into action.

Waking up yesterday to such amazing weather, my mind automatically thought, it’s going to be a good day. All those smells of spring, you feel like the day is never ending (in a good way). So simple that a change in weather, automatically brings a shift in attitude and positivity without actually really trying very hard at all to bring this to the forefront of your mind.

 

I guess the point I’m trying to make is, I woke up yesterday. Saw what the weather was like. Felt spring, smelt spring, immediately felt happier, lighter and just... excited. I didn’t need a blog, Instagram or quotes on my phone to put me in that mood, just stepping outside did that for me.

I encourage you to try it
