On spring, I usually sit under a tree's shadow for smelling germination of tree, and floral. Sometimes, I'm extremely curious about what two birds talk together, and image that I can understand
how I feel closed with them. Even though I stuck with serious problems such as health, my kids from my routine, I will get a balance when I lie on a soft grass, look at the sky and smell aroma from nature.
