spring up like mushroom after the rain 雨后春“笋”




It had been raining from last night till noon. Went for a 1-hour walking exercise in early afternoon under the shady sky. I wouldn't call it "brisk" walking, because my pace was only slightly faster than leizure stroll!

Pleasantly surprised by the mushroom scattered among the grassland along the exercise trail. The Chinese idiom 雨后春笋comes to my mind - but that refers to the sprouting of bamboo shoot, and not flourishing mushroom (but both carries the same meaning}.

It was a refreshing sight - reminds me of new beginnings, fresh ideas and opportunities in the midst of COVID-19 pandemic.
