It’s February. The sun is shining and reflecting a rainbow onto the surrounding walls and window. The frost and the winter blues and the pandemic are still here, but it doesn’t feel as all consuming this morning. Today marks a fresh start. The turning of a new dawn that should have happened last month, when the clock struck midnight and we entered 2021.

So it may only be February and seem as if nothing much has changed. But the nights will continue to get lighter and eventually the frost won’t seem so cold. The hope for better days will continue to grow. And until then, we’ll just be waiting for the new normal to be replaced by the old.
