Welcome the Season of Renewal

I welcome a new season into the world but am perplexed that it rushed in with loud whooshes of wind. Night winds turned into early morning winds with slower speed and different swirling sounds. It was then that I realized it was Day 2 of the new season of renewal. Did Mother Nature open its azure skies to remind me, and the world, that "When one flower blooms, spring awakens everywhere" (Walter C. Hagen)?

Life is fragile, uncertain, and when you least expect it becomes a bump in the journey. I am in the middle of a unexpected happening that is gushing with whooshing winds. Yet, the beginning of spring soothes my soul. Holding on to the idea of spring, a season of renewal, alters the fragility and uncertainty of life. Spring becomes the magical potion for a spiritual awakening.

INVITATION to CELEBRATE the SEASON of RENEWAL
Reception this weekend-please attend.
Enjoy ebulating excitement and the
Newness of nature's season.
Embrace life's awakening and  
Wonder about the beauty of cherry blossoms. 
Applaud the sweet song of the birds-Pause,
Let's all launch the season together.
