I walk outside. I am instantly greeted by the sun. It is warm on my skin. Flowers are blooming all around, on the ground, in the trees. Indicating the start of spring. Everything is full of color. It looks as if a wedding could take place here. It smells of fresh rain and newly bloomed flowers. I am surrounded by beauty, I should be happy,
Should I?
Why?
It's such a beautiful day.
How long will it last?
There's ought to be something to come.
A thunderstorm to cover the so temporary sun, or maybe a tornado will wipe away the vibrant colors.
Spring will end.
Winter will eventually come. It will be cold and dark. It has always been cold and dark.
That is the natural state of the universe.
