Smelling the roses ...

Apart from the slight inconvenience of not having a car, it's amazing getting to ground level by walking and cycling. I can stop when I want (more like when I have to at the moment!) and smell the roses as it were.

"One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today."
Dale Carnegie
