“This spring, we invite you to piece together the feeling of the wind…”

It was one of those quiet afternoons. The sunlight was gentle, pouring through the window as I sat across from my daughter at the table. She was focused, her little hand moving across the paper as she wrote. Outside, the world was painted in fresh green, and a soft, warm breeze drifted in, carrying with it the scent of spring grass. The house was still, yet my heart felt full—calm, content, and quietly joyful.

Spring, I’ve learned, always carries the promise of new beginnings. It reminds us of life’s simple, renewing joys, and it fills us with the strength to face whatever comes our way. From my own journey and the stories of friends, I know that life is rarely smooth. We all pass through seasons of hardship, uncertainty, and change. That’s why moments of peace like this, moments when we feel free and unburdened, are so rare—and so precious.

I wanted to hold onto that feeling. I thought back to times with family and friends on the vast grasslands of Ulan Butong—listening to the wind, running wild, or simply pausing to breathe. And then, sitting at my desk, I began to draw. This illustration, born of a quiet afternoon, became a small attempt to capture that peace, that sense of renewal, that spring brings. I hope that in sharing it, it might carry that same hope and quiet strength to whoever holds it. Like the wind on the plains, it is meant to pass freely, unburdened. Like the first green shoots after winter, it carries the quiet power of resilience and new life.
