Letting go at the flower market (winter in Amsterdam)

Letting go

At a closer look, there aren’t really that many important people in life. Though with those who are, we share a lot of happiness and enjoy the mutual presence. Certainly, this kind of companion differs from the broad mass: Such relationships built up of comfort and a persistent effort to dry the tears shed over what causes gloomy moments in life.

The ones we love are the ones that we care for the most. As much as this behavior bases on the sake of good intention, there is also always an emotional dependence involved: If the others are doing well, you are doing well too. If they feel bad, you worry or sometimes even suffer yourself.

At times, a companion’s decisions seem not to their behalf, causing a complicated situation. The acceptance of an opposing perspective is no easy task. Yet, holding on to ideas that others don’t crave rarely leads to a happy ending. However, in the end, letting go might be the brightest in certain scenarios.

The flower market in Amsterdam in winter

Early in 2021, there were a few special days in Amsterdam – snow had covered the city under a layer of frozen water. You can see the famous floating Amsterdam flower market in this photo and the frozen canal that surrounds it. The flower market in Amsterdam is one of the most atmospheric markets in the city. If you're looking for a great place to enjoy the winter sun, this is the perfect spot. The market stalls are full of beautiful flowers, and there's always a great atmosphere. There are also plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby, so you can make a day of it.

Hi there, I'm Stefanie, the photographer, and author of the blog post you're reading now.
