Life is unpredictable. One second you’re pulling off what
could be the sweetest dance move ever on the hardwood floor… The next, you’re
lying in a crumpled pile holding your broken ass.
Things change just like that. Without warning, and sometimes
without reason. Learning how to accept these things, and flow with them – make
the best of them even, is a constant challenge.
But there is some continuity. The sun always sets, and it
always comes up in the morning. We never have to wonder, “will the sun come up
today?” It just does. And the seasons come and go – there are no ifs ands or
buts. Right on schedule Spring is coming. This is not a surprise, but it is
welcome. It’s the first year in this house, so it *is* a surprise to see what
comes up. This tree, for instance, burst into flower to my great happiness… All
along this tree in the front yard was keeping these flowers until now – holding on to them like a
secret… And now here they are – blooming bright and beautiful, revealing themselves
against the early Spring blue sky. It makes me happy.
