“It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade.”
Charles Dickens

Sun shing and the wind blowing cold…perfectly describes today, at least in DC! That wise Mr. Dickens.
Elizabeth — Doesn’t it describe today PERFECTLY? I nearly died when I found it this morning. Oh Charles, what a talent he was : )
perfect for nyc too! i had this very thought on my way to work, but of course couldn’t put these words to it. xx
Jane — Oh please, Dickens has nothing on your eloquence : ) Miss you! XO
oo wow! so beautiful! couple of days ago we had a weather like that! Today it’s snowing and it’s super cold!
I’m glad there’s some consolation from Dickens on the crazy March weather! (We had white-out snow conditions in the morning, and then it all melted in the afternoon!)
Beautiful!!

A perfect quote for a day like today! Just hiked with the dogs :) thanks for sharing the wisdom of Dickens.
what literature is this pulled from? I really like it
Never mind! I found out it’s an excerpt from Great Expectations
I’m glad you found out Adriana—it actually didn’t specify where I found it and I was wondering the same thing! XO
