magical moments

When you don't expect anything, the magical moments suddenly appear. Now is one of those moments. I am sitting by Lake Millstatt, the children have found an indoor playground and are completely in their element, Gerhard is trying to attach the warning sign required for Italy to our motorhome, and I am sitting here on a newly built wooden terrace, enjoying the view, the tranquility, my tea that I brought with me, and actually feeling a touch of spring. I find it amazing how different perception can be. At home, you only take a brief moment each day to acknowledge the weather and the season, you quickly check if it matches the calendar date, and if it roughly matches, you don't pay much attention to it and your thoughts are already focused on the next distraction. Now it's completely different, consciously and unconsciously, you are constantly reminded of the season, which is unfamiliar but very beautiful, it makes you feel more connected to the whole.
