Thanks Helle for this beautiful reminder of the importance of the present moment. I try to stay focused on the here and now, and choose joy. Dwelling in the past isn’t good for me - we lost our son 20 months ago - and fearing the future (aging) isn’t good either. Although both the past and the future are part of our lives, I believe we live it more fully by cherishing the present moment. ❤

Lol! That was exactly what I was wondering when you said No, I didn't knit these sweater! You read my mind!

Have never seen lilacs growing in such profusion before. The fragrance must have been heavenly. I love the way your cat likes to follow you. 😊

We had a slow/delayed spring in Oregon this year. Your video reminded me I wrote this in my notes several weeks back "This time spring did not burst forth out of nothing, instead slowly seeping into being over weeks and months. Ice and cold rain mixed with falling petals from the first blooming trees. Tulips sent up shoots and buds, but withheld their blooming. Trees, usually seething with green by now, retain their winter austerity. But slowly, spring does arrive like a watercolor painting softly bleeding into white paper. And we wait, trying to be patient, to see the good in a prolonged winter." I love the lilacs too. The best fragrance on earth.

Thank you for sharing some beautiful moments with us. Spring is fleeting and must be enjoyed moment by moment. Here in Alaska we anticipate the moment when the Sandhill Cranes return in April. Now we see them strutting across people's yarns and flying lazily while announcing their presence with their unique call. Now we watch for baby moose, so long legged and chocolate brown. We have yet to have leaves on the trees and I admit to feeling jealous when seeing all the green and flowers in your video. But there is a green haze around the birches. The cottonwood grove surrounding my house is releasing it's resinous buds and the scent that is my favorite in the world. Thank you for the reminder to enjoy each of these precious and fleeting moments in spring!

Congratulations to your diploma. You are the kind of person that can achieve everything she wants because you are much more thoughtful, intellectually deep and inspirational than many other people. Here in Germany, spring has finally arrived with beautiful weather and summer is already approaching. I've done many cycle tours and barbecues with friends and also some lonely walks trough the countryside, but the lonely evenings make me a bit sad. I plan to travel to England this summer, but it would be so much nicer with a very special person by my side who I can share romantic momants and profound conversations with. Friends can give us so much. But there are certain things that only a partner, a true love, can give us.

Thank you for another beautiful presentation, Helle. It is thrilling to be able to see your land in the spring. Our province, Prince Edward Island, Canada was severely damaged last September by Hurricane Fiona. After enjoying your videos, I have been encouraging neighbours to consider planting hedges of lilacs in areas previously forested. I hope to do this . Your knitting projects have been lovely and it occurred to me that you would be intrigued with a Canadian designer , Jennifer Beale, knitjbeale Designs. Her work is spectacular. I just finished reading The Crimson and the White after you commented on your enjoyment of it. Another author who entrances me is Sarah Winman.

What a beautiful and lovely videos you make ! I resonate very much with your stories and musings on life. Reading books on life and spirituality brought me clarity and a feeling of being understood, a boost to dealing with it all. As a nice mindful activity outdoors, I could recommend visiting private gardens. Of course Great Britain is well known for its beautiful and famous gardens. But I was pleasantly surprised, discovering in my home country (The Netherlands) and other countries, there are many great private gardens opened up to the public by their owners for some days/periods of the year. Garden organisations/magazins provide lists. Choose your own selection of gardens, making your own tour. If you like greens, flowers and nice people around, then highly recommended.
