Hello my friends, hope you are doing well. This time of quarantine is making me reflect on many things. I’ve been up and down in relation to my feelings. Some days of stress, others of calm, others of nothing only going with the flow. I know for sure, is that I’m settling into the new routine of working from home. Sharing the space with my husband, having lots of coffee/tea and popcorn in the afternoons have brightened my day and I’m being more productive than we all day in the office.
The weather is getting more spring-like these days and a run at the closest park is always a moment of joy. Now is the season of tulips, and they are everywhere. I never get tired of taking photos of them.
Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.
Lao Tzu
Stay safe!

Elizabeth, change is always difficult isn’t it? I’m glad you are falling into a routine. My daughter, who is also working from home, recently made the same comment, that once she developed a routine, life became easier. I am adjusting as well but to life with my husband now retired. Friends warned me it would take a little time and it has, LOL! xo

Wow, those tulips are amazing, and the coffee and flowers look so peaceful. I expect that a lot of people will want to keep working from home when this is all over.

Thanks, Meg! The plans to go back to work are starting here. It will be again another adaptation now that we are getting used to be at home.

Beautiful tulips and excellent quote. We need time to adjust in the new normal. Let us be kind with ourselves.

Kindness with myself! Why is it so difficult to be kind with ourselves? We go through many up and downs (mostly) and to realize that the power to change is inside us. Have a great weekend, Rupali!

Those tulips are so beautiful. It’s so important to focus on the good things in these strange uncertain times. My moods are sometimes topsy turvy too but mostly nature helps keep me balanced. Take care Elizabeth. 💕🌷

Yes to Nature! I had never paid much attention to Nature when I was growing up, only if it was sunny (beach time) and raining (boring time), but as I grow older my synchronizing with Nature has increased so much, I find balance and grounding moments when I’m observing Nature at work. Have a great weekend!

Indeed! I think I was similar. Part of being young and immature I guess. Big nature hugs to you xx 😊💚

“I’ve been up and down in relation to my feelings. Some days of stress, others of calm, others of nothing only going with the flow…” – Yes, this sounds like me in a nutshell. Some day good, some days bad, some days, just give me the wine and no one gets hurt haha. And I just love that tulip picture it is so amazing

It has been a challenge and we need to adapt and be open to the new. Tulips are really gorgeous, but they go away so fast. Have a great weekend!
