I find myself, just hours before the end of this month of March, wanting to take stock of the past few weeks, not knowing where to begin… After a few deleted opening lines, I’m perplexed: should I find sentences that sound intelligent, poetic, inspiring? Or can I admit that I’m too tired to put together more than a few sentences, and that this should be enough?
Looking back, there were some lovely moments this month after all…
There was my birthday week, where I’ve alternated between moments of solitude at home and time spent outside with loved ones…
There was the request to use my photography skills to serve the community, which led me to explore the surrounding area and (re)discover its local treasures…
There was that joyful day surrounded by enthusiastic volunteers, where some rather crazy project ideas took root…
There were those conversations with various longtime friends, reminding us how relationships often boil down to the essentials: feeling welcome…
With all that, I barely had time to enjoy the buds transforming into multicolored blossoms…! But when I saw these young flowers illuminated by the sun, contrasting with this stormy sky, I knew that the moment would be fleeting, so I took my camera... and snap!
I haven’t necessarily had the time to wander around and take photos at my own pace, as I usually like to do, but ultimately, this photo reminds me of what’s essential: despite a life filled with ideas, projects, and concerns, it’s about knowing when to capture those temporary moments of beauty…
Being there, taking the time rather than putting it off to achieve a mere possibility of perfection… and realizing that, in the end, I still come away proud! The key is to just go for it and accept imperfection and the beauty it has to offer :)
I could continue my philosophical wondering, but I’ll spare you my rambling—though I’ll definitely come back to it another time, because I’m eager to share my latest reading and listening experiences that have enriched my thinking!
To be continued…!
In the meantime, I wish you a lovely April :)
