it can always be spring

Even in dead winter, it can always be spring. A Hancock window in deep winter -- with spring flowers thriving on the window sill -- the hope of spring to come. This is a philosophical statement of the owner of the kitchen. It will come; and there is beauty in the winter; in the now.

Individually we must remember this -- that the spring will come; the better -- the best will come; even in the depth of the coldest and darkest day.

Merry Christmas.
