Hay fever!
As my joy and delight build with opening flowers and pollen fills the air, the pressure builds in my sinuses and so does my despair.
“Antihistamines!” The crowd cries, but I shake my head and sigh.
Antihistamines make me crazy is my only reply.
Seriously, it’s worse than not taking them.
Garlic and horseradish tablets are my only remedy.
Having said that, I’d rather have hay fever and my joy than clear sinuses and an inability to enjoy Nature’s art.
It seems life always balances our joy with despair, but that’s not a bad thing. Without despair, we wouldn’t even know what joy is!
