Today is a good day.
As I was walking back from the gym, I concluded that today is a good day.
Firstly, because I've recovered enough from the lurgi to actually be able to do 20 mins swimming. (and although it's been a couple of weeks since my last swim, I notice that my breath control is improving on strokes like front crawl)
Secondly, and most important, there are daffodils. Bright, bouncy, breezy daffodils in all their glory. I do not believe that there is any flower that conveys a more simple joy than the daffodil. There are prettier flowers, more gorgously coloured flowers, there are flowers that bring quiet delight when found hiding on a grassy bank, but there are none that trumpet spring more loudly, none that bounce in a breeze with such brassy confidence, none that look more vivid on a spring morning.
As long as there are daffodils in the world, I have hope for the future.
