Monday morning

Monday morning. After a momentary scare in which I thought I almost walked out without my keys I am standing on the steps to my building. "I am lucky that I went back" I think to myself and start walking to work.

It's a cloudy day, but the cherry blossoms make me smile. They will remain there, perhaps for one more week and then I won't see them again until next year.

Rain drops start falling all around, but instead of opening my umbrella I continue walking, letting the drops fall on me. One on my nose, one on my cheek, one on my lips. <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Air">"Alone In Tokyo"</a> starts on my iPod as the smell of the wet soil arises from the ground. I love when it starts to rain.

As much as I am in love with blue skies today is a perfect day.
