It is here! The buds are out; the earth is pregnant and birthing new growth. The colors are just starting to show and the birds are announcing themselves. My excitement for the warm weather, the greenery, the flowers, the trees, the SUN is exploding!

And today, the first day of Spring, my day was free! So busy yet today all of a sudden my day opened up! I totally take advantage of it. I go into the woods at a local park and walk breathing in the air, picking up a stick, a flower, a pine tree branch. I slowwwwwww down, I walk slow, I stop and lie down on the little wooden bench and soak in the sun. I am so enjoying the sun I hardly notice the family that is walking by. I am sprawled out like I have not seen the sun in a year and I just smile back at their smiles, not moving a muscle as it feels too good!

I get to see a hawk sitting on a branch and a woodpecker. Seeing and feeling (I have to touch everything) the little tiny flowers coming up from the ground, the buds on the trees; I can feel the earth, the growth wanting to bust out. This is such an exciting time; everything, everyone is awakening!

We can now all take off those dark coats, those outer coatings that are no longer needed and show our colors, our passion and zest and love for life, for each other, for Mother Earth!

Wishing you a colorful zestful full of life Spring!
