Sunny. Spring breeze.

Winter in Japan is significantly shorter than north east US. I am being reminded of and physically experiencing the distinct season changes which is one of the perks of living in Japan. We seem to have a more spaced out schedule between each season to observe and appreciate the beauty of each of the four seasons. Today's weather probably lifted a lot of people's moods more than they were originally—there was sunshine which made you slightly sweat if you were walking enough distance, and yet there was residue of winter mixed in the wind. Nobody had to wear a bulky coat, our shoulders were lighter, our movements were freer, our skin several layers closer to the sunlight and breeze.
