“If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome."

A Light exists in Spring - Not present on the Year
At any other period – When March is scarcely here
At any other period – When March is scarcely here
A Color stands abroad - On Solitary Fields
That Science cannot overtake - But Human Nature feels…
That Science cannot overtake - But Human Nature feels…
Emily Dickinson, ‘A Light Exists in Spring‘.
