Spring Forward

So, we adjusted our clocks one hour forward. “Time” itself did not care what we did with our clock. The sun and the moon did not get up one hour early just because we did. The earth did not turn any faster. Anyway, the days are getting longer, the spring is here, the trees are getting new leaves, flowers are beginning to bloom, the birds are chirping, and the beaches are lively again. Yes, the world is springing forward with life whether they change their clock or not. The spring festival, the festival of color, the Bihu, the cuckoo birds, the dancers, the lovers, and the kite flyers are all coming out. Life does not start in the middle of dreaded winter on January 1; it begins in spring.
