“It’s the simple things” my Aunt said.
“It’s the simple things” my Aunt said. The simple things we can enjoy again that we have missed. Meeting new people for instance, and seeing new things in real life not on a screen. I do love the things we have been able to do like walk on the seafront. Even cloudy mornings offer up their beauty.
