Monday Memo|Detail No.149| April 07, 2025

April is here, and with it comes that unmistakable feeling — like something new is waking up inside us. The days are a little brighter, the air feels lighter, and there’s this quiet whisper in the breeze: it’s time.

Spring has always had a way of nudging us toward renewal. It doesn’t scream; it gently says, let’s begin again. And maybe that’s exactly what we need right now — not a big dramatic shift, but a quiet return to ourselves. A reminder that just like the flowers slowly pushing through the soil, we too can bloom in our own time.

Think about it — nature never apologizes for starting over. Trees shed their leaves. Flowers close up for a while. And yet, when the season changes, they come back brighter, bolder, fuller. Why shouldn’t we do the same?

This Monday, ask yourself gently: what am I holding onto that I no longer need? It could be a belief, a habit, a fear, or even a version of yourself that no longer fits. Letting go can feel scary — but it can also be the kindest thing you do for yourself.

The beauty of spring is that it’s never in a rush. It unfolds slowly, step by step. And you can too. You don’t have to have it all figured out today. You just have to be open — open to change, to softness, to new beginnings.

So take a breath. Smile at the sky. And remember: it’s not just spring outside — it’s spring within you too.
