I’m going to tell you something really subverse. Love is everything it’s cracked up to be. That’s why people are so cynical about it… It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, and risking everything for. And if you don’t risk everything, you risk even more.

* Daffodils everywhere
* That smell in the air of summer being just a glimmer away
* My new bike. In some ways the new bike is easier to ride than the old one. Less gears for a start!
* Them Crooked Vultures in session last night
* The long awaited arrival of spring vegetables in my organic veg box – I was getting so bored of turnips and beets.
We have daffodils everywhere too! I love them. They are so cheery with their beautiful yellow-ness. I nearly cried when I saw the first one!

Love is all you need
Oh and tulips and chocolate…Houdini x
You two are so cute!
Spring and fall are the seasons I miss most living in the tropics. Here we are coming to my favourite time of year though, the end of the wet season when everything is green and lush still, but the rains have stopped. In a few months it will be brown and dry again, but ahead we have glorious cool temperatures (28 degrees instead of 32++ ! Get out your sweaters people) and all that green-ness.
That photo is so sweet!
I would love it if I were surrounded by daffodils too..
Hi Rachel! I found your blog through the Lady Bloggers Society, and I love it! Looking forward to following.
Hi, Rachel.
There’s a reason why love is the metaphor of choice for Yoga sages and poets of all religions to express their deepest spiritual experiences. The very human experiences of love is the closest they can come to describing their experience of the infinite wonder of the universe.
