Spring

The trees are almost fully leafed out now and several have beautiful blossoms as well, the sun is shining, the sky is blue, and the birds are singing. It looks, smells, and feels like spring today and in light of that here's a piece by Joy that is appropriate to share today.

Don't you just love this time of year? Spring is such a special time, watching the world come alive again after a long, cold winter!

Are you taking a little time to enjoy the wonders around you? To marvel over the perfection of a tulip? To be inspired by the exuberant songs of birds as they celebrate life? We would do well to think of the birds--they don't count moments or months, but still have time enough for work and for play. Someone once said, "there are solus in this world who have the gift of finding joy everywhere and of leaving it behind them when they go."

I want to be like that...how about you?

Has spring arrived where you are (or fall if you're down under)? Enjoy!
