Beginning over again

And so with the sunshine
    and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees,
        just as things grow in fast movies,
            I had that familiar conviction
                that life was beginning over again with the summer.

                                                F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby
