The Mystical Magic of Spring


For the last few weeks, we have been blessed with many spring-like days. Even though it is still March, life is beginning to sprout all over the place. The birds are busy building nests and waking me before dawn with their songs of joy. I've even seen a mosquito! The weather may still change but spring is on the horizon.


As I took my afternoon walk, I decided to capture spring in photos along the way so here goes.

Enjoy!














I must step onto my soapbox before I finish this blog entry. Many of us, myself included, have used or use chemcals to kill weeds, to fertilize our grass, etc. I ask each of you who read this blog to think and then think again before using these types of chemicals. It is my belief that they are slowly killing our planet, first the bees and then.... Well, I really don't want to go there. If you absolutely must use weed killer, wipe it onto the leaves of the weed you want to destroy. At least it won't get into the soil and air.  However, my suggestion is to either let the weeds grow so they can fulfill their purpose or get down on your knees, sit on your butt and pull them. Get dirty. Get in touch with Mother Earth. 

As I step off my soapbox, I wish you all a Happy Easter and a Blessed Passover. 

Namaste,

Mareda
