a quiet moment to end the week with inspiration through Photography and Words

Not a simple photography tip as such, but more like life inspiration through Photography and Words—a mix of visual with sometimes meaningful reflections.
"Despite". This week, the final one of January has been extraordinarily wet. We have a roof window in our bedroom, and every time I stirred the rain was drumming down.
The next morning the valley was as flooded as I've ever seen it, and I spent a chunk of a day helping a friend whose kitchen was inches deep in the wet cold stuff. Pumps that worked, then didn't, and the forecast for more hung like the very Sword of Damocles.
Yet in the verges and in the shy corners of gardens, the first celandines (Ficaria verna) had appeared. Little sparks of yellow that lift the soul. Much like the local priest arriving with hot bangers, mash and BB, and banana custard afterwards, they quietly encourage you to paddle on.
Has something happened this week; different words and situation apply from Live Like It's Spring, but the response could be much the same.
