Inspiration struck me out of nowhere yesterday. I was feeling anxious, and I couldn't quite place it, so my mom suggested I go for a walk around the pond situated not too far from where we live. It was a beautiful day, the first warm one in a long time. I was walking in my favourite sweater, with a fresh hair cut, and once I heard the first feeble "fee-bee" of the springtime chickadees, I felt my mind peel open like a curling orchid, dewy and nurtured by the hubbub around me. My brain was pollinated, so to speak, by the natural ecosystem coexisting alongside the deafening roar of the highway a stone's throw from the pond's trail, and the idea for this blog was planted.
