Spring in Action (March 23)

After our snow this past weekend, I didn't know if anything that had started to come up would actually still be alive, but thankfully, it didn't get cold enough to kill the hyacinth. They are starting poke their little heads out of the ground and one of them was actually blooming. Spring is one of my favorite times of the year. I love watching how quickly everything changes from being dead and dying to suddenly turning green and starting all over again. It helps to motivate me to do the same thing in other aspects of my existence. I feel like shaking off the winter doldrums and walking around the block. Or gutting that closet that's full of sweaters that I'm sick of wearing. Or just sitting down on the new green grass and thinking about how lucky I am for the things I have around me. Spring is finally here and I am so glad to see it.
