SPRING - lovely or leading to misery...hee hee

On Wednesday the weather peaked at 18-degrees Celsius...it was like a lovely spring day. Today is Friday and it has cooled down substantially and is a bit gloomy, clouds hovering ominously overhead. Soon hay-fever season will come and I will become sniffly pink-eyed BB...ohhh, I never suffered from allergies before but living a few years in Japan did it...ohh.

In Japan there is an ever-present theme of how things in life are transient - how true that is. So when you have a delightful event occur in your life, savor it and cherish it for the short time it is there...and when a tragic event occurs, remember that it too is transient and one just has to bear with it until it goes away. Life is a matter of how you look at it, isn't it? Everything has its positives and negatives but if we look at the positives, we'll live longer! Scientific research supports this theory!
