This is an invitation to believe in better times.

Believe in crimson sunsets and sparkling azure seas.

Believe in towering trees with leaves unfurling in the spring sunshine.

Believe in walks in the park holding hands with your loved ones.

Believe in the simple pleasure of sipping coffee

on the pavement outside a café.

Most of all, believe that the earth is waiting for you

and longs for the touch of your footsteps once more.
