Season of the Soul




"Spring is a season of the soul
to regain its strength."
Lailah Gifty Akita

We notice the grass turning green, flowers poking up from the ground, and small buds on the branches of trees; but do we notice the stirring in our hearts for new life?  In the Spring, the soul is no different from all living things, wanting to expand and beautify.  Spring is an opportunity for expansive opening.

Where shall we place our newly found energy?  We pace our lovely selves, waiting for the right tug at our heart to know when to jump in.  Begin anew with the promises of Spring and start planting new seeds bringing ideas, insights, and deeper understanding to be harvested in the Fall. 

Hibernating in the winter tends to make us small and limited.  Crawl out of the cave and rinse the body, mind and soul in the gentle Spring rain.  Bask in the sun allowing the beams to instill new energy into life itself.  Wander the flower markets until filled with fragrance, colors, and designs.  Feel the self bursting with the strength of Spring!
