Amazing California

I am sure that like me, every person who has ever moved to a new country to live, or even a new state or city, at certain points in time has asked themselves the question, "why did I do this?" Even if you have great reasons for doing it, there are some days when everything is just difficult, and you start to doubt your own logic. This thought has crossed my mind a few times since I came to the US.

However, a January like this one definitely banishes any doubts that may come to mind. January 2005 was cold and rainy, but this year has been sunny and clear with blue skies and orange sunsets almost every day. So as crazy as the place is - I mean where else has an action hero as the state governor? - California is still one of the most beautiful places you could ever hope to live.






Outside in the yard, the orange tree has the first buds on it with the promise of spring and summer, and the tulips and daffodils are already in full bloom.






So when anyone asks me why I came to California, it's days like this when I can just look around me, and say, "Who wouldn't? California is amazing!"
