Spring-like tidings in mid-November.
Well, the beautiful, sunny, warm weather made it feel that way - mood-lifting, outlook-shifting ... helped in no small part by Saturday’s call of the election for the Biden Harris ticket - thank the stars! The ticket itself - Biden with his more than four decades in elected service, and Harris with all the “firsts” she checks off - seasoned, yet new and fresh. Hip hip hooray!
And so today, the Monday after, was a lovely 70-something degree day to be out to soak in some sunshine, activate the vitamin D, and celebrate with lunch of tofu poke with my favorite sister (putting aside for a few hours the work that always hangs over heavy - sigh).
On the river, a jet skier whizzed by the colorful trees of Roosevelt Island, as if there were a whole season full of warm and sunny days ahead, like it were mid-May rather than mid-November.
And in the news, a vaccine, with results in based on 44,000 volunteers, with a tentative effective rate of 90 percent! We might slowly be able to resume life before too much longer.
To a sense of fresh beginnings in November, ushering in better days. To finally exhaling, being able to breathe again - literally and figuratively.
