One of the other things that I have come to appreciate anew, during these challenging times is the awesome beauty of nature all around us. My wife and I, who have lived in our present home for nearly 18 years have discovered, in many cases for the first time, lovely walks across open spaces starting literally from our doorstep. Judging by the number of people we see out walking, with whom we share a knowing smile and a socially-distanced greeting, we appear not to be the only ones who are experiencing this Epiphany during these recent weeks.
It’s funny how you sometimes under-appreciate the good things close to home.
