08 Dec The exquisite experience of an early summer afternoon
There is something about late spring/early summer in Melbourne.
It feels like pure joy descends on our neighbourhood streets, and brings with it a kind of magic.
Today, I went for a walk to get some groceries at around 4 pm. As I stepped out onto Hotham Street I felt like the energy in the air was bursting with delight. All I could think as I walked along was goodness, hopefulness and happiness.
It is the kind of weather that begs to be experienced under a pergola or in a beer garden with a refreshing beverage at the end of the working day.
And on the way home I noticed such sweet fragrance in the plants and flowers along my journey.
Is it any wonder that humans have such capacity for happiness, when our senses are presented with such a vivid spectacle of stimulation at this time of year!??
