It’s easy to take the most loved and most used things in our life for granted. The people and things that are there for us day after day become regular or normal, and seemingly less-than-special.
But spring shakes things up. Every year, the force of life unfailingly says to the trees, “Hey! I’m here! We’re in this together! Here are some blossoms, some roots, some new shoots!”
Time after time, things renewed become beacons of faith and love.
Make some spring happen. Look at your life and find one or two relationships, areas, or possessions that can be revitalized. Inject life into them. Express gratitude (“Hey! I’m here! We’re in this together, and it’s been a while since I said thanks….”) Make repairs (fix your bike, call to say that you’re committed to calling more often, make good on a promise). Get the dust off and make some shine (get an old picture framed, add stretching to your morning ritual, resolve to speak your mind).
Happy Spring!
