Seasonal Journey
Spring is upon us and has brought a renewal of life. Nature adorns her space with an abundance of blooms, lime greens and reddish umbers. The air is crisp as I nestle down beside a low lying tree limb. Before me is a treasure to behold. Fresh blossoms rejoice in spring’s return with intricate layers of whites and pinks. They join each other in groups and happily scatter themselves amongst leaves and limbs.
Their allure is unmistakable as their grandness beckons one to move closer to experience their beauty more intimately. Their journey has just begun as they prepare to bear fruit and present their offerings to the world.

A couple of weekends ago, I was lured into my backyard by beautiful apple blossoms bursting into bloom. Every spring they entice me to admire their birth. When life is too busy it is easy to miss the best part of their presentation! Their blooms are fleeting and one must be fully conscious in order to witness their full drama!
I was especially glad that I had visited our apple trees when I did. This past weekend their beauty was wilting. Blossoms had made their debut and nature was moving onward to its next stage.
Being fully present in a moment is not always an easy task. However, when accomplished, living in a moment in time can bring about much peace and harmony. Wishing you small present moments this joyous Spring!
