Look up, Dummy.

After a day of looking around and finding nothing but grey, blah, blech... I looked up. I think that's going to be my new mantra - because everytime I stop whinging about what's dead in front of me and raise my eyes in a skyward direction, I see something else entirely... like the fact that all the trees may be bare and barren and eye level, but way up towards the sunlight the buds are popping out all over, optimistically plump and cheerful.

I'm beginning to think I should tattoo "Look Up, Dummy" on my foot.
