In March and early April every year, Hanoi people seem to be able to live through all four seasons in just a few dozen days: When it rains and is as humid as spring weather for a whole week; when the golden sunlight shines like mid-summer on the colorful flowers; when the wind blows away the layers of yellow leaves covering the roads; when I was startled awake by cold chills running down my spine.
A time when, alas… it was extremely easy to get sick. But it is also the time when people living in the Capital can admire countless “stirring” moments of nature and heaven, which according to photographer Giang Trinh, “there are too many things to capture in photos.” . And for many people, the joy these days is sometimes just seeing sunshine after a week of wet rain. The sunlight adds a refractive prism to the scene, making it a bit more beautiful from any angle.
As always, sunny days between seasons in Hanoi always make people look forward to it. Sunlight dances on the walls. The sunlight blends into the tree canopy. The sun crept into the roadside shops. Sunlight penetrates the glass into the office on the high floor…
On sunny days of changing seasons, when the air is not quite as harsh, Hanoians seem to tell themselves to go out to enjoy this weather. On the way to work, throttle slower to look up at the new foliage. On Sunday afternoon, a group of friends gathered together to have coffee outside. One cool evening, the couple went on a date by the edge of a lake with sparkling water waves… All of these are heart-stoppingly beautiful moments, that just by stopping for a moment, everyone can feel them in Hanoi. in these days.
Somehow, the changes of nature always move with the changes in human emotions and thoughts. Thanks to that, this year’s changing seasons in Hanoi seem to be even more exciting, making me think of the lyrics:
“The sun is shining, making my hair turn yellow
This afternoon, walking through the city, I felt dreamy
Find yourself a space, turn on music that makes you chill”
(Excerpt from the song “This song is chill phet” – Den Vau ft Min, 2019)
“The bougainvillea bush is now listening.
The gentle lullaby of the rain Summer is about to return to me,
In the dream, there are only people crying,
Happy people.
Crazy
High above the clouds is the sunset.
Sobbing my heart…”
(Excerpt from the song “Confetti Bush” – TRANG 2017)
These days, while Hanoi changes seasons, the hearts of people living on this land are also experiencing new transitions. You don’t need to have an artistic soul like Mr. Den Vau, Trang or Min to be able to feel the changes from the inside to the landscape. But I believe that each person will have different thoughts. Maybe the difference is just the way we name it, the way we face the “transition of time”.
Somewhere there are people who have just finished their old jobs and are “stuck” because of the global human resources crisis. Somewhere there are people standing at the crossroads of going far away or staying in Hanoi, also because of the word “opportunity”. Somewhere there are people who are trying to keep up with the rapid development of technology, for fear of being left behind… As nature out there changes seasons, people here are going through a transition: a period. of new things blooming, when the old things have not completely ended.
Everyone has their own concerns, but that doesn’t mean they miss out on the beautiful moments of the changing seasons. China’s main philosopher – Lao Tzu once commented: “Nature is never in a hurry, everything is completed.” No matter what, nature will complete its inherent biological cycle. Even the change of seasons will eventually come to an end. The same goes for transferring and adapting to the new era. In the midst of endless thoughts, be patient and things will happen!
