Image by ecstaticist via FlickrIt is good to have an end to journey towards; but it is the journey that matters in the end.
Ursula K Leguin

You might have the end in mind, but it is all the little moments that you can enjoy along the way. Everyone out there this morning... enjoy every minute of today! I certainly intend to :)

Quotes about Spring

I know that it is far too early to be thinking about spring... at least where I live, but I certainly can start thinking about it. Maybe if we think hard enough, we just might make it happen lol!!

Everything is blooming most recklessly; if it were voices instead of colors, there would be an unbelievable shrieking into the heart of the night.
Rainer Maria Rilke

Awake, thou wintry earth -
Fling off thy sadness!
Fair vernal flowers, laugh forth
Your ancient gladness!
Thomas Blackburn

Well, spring sprang. We've had our state of grace and our little gift of sanctioned madness, courtesy of Mother Nature. Thanks, Gaia. Much obliged. I guess it's time to get back to that daily routine of living we like to call normal.
David Assael

If winter comes, can spring be far behind?
Percy Bysshe Shelley

Spring is nature's way of saying, "Let's party!"
Robin Williams

There is just something about sunny yellow daffodils that simply shouts that spring is here. I found this video to show you how and when to plant them!

Daffodils Quotes

A host of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
William Wordsworth

It is daffodil time, so the robins all cry, For the sun's a big daffodil up in the sky, And when down the midnight the owl call "to-whoo"! Why, then the round moon is a daffodil too; Now sheer to the bough-tops the sap starts to climb, So, merry my masters, it's daffodil time.
Clinton Scollard

*This video has done its job. I'm going to get dressed and go out for a walk. Hopefully, I will spot a field of yellow daffodils!!

In the Potting Shed

A nice way to start your morning... at least that's what I'm looking forward to. Alas... we still have snow... but I can dream ;) Can't wait to get into the potting shed and smell... dirt! It's been a long winter!

In the spring, at the end of the day, you should smell like dirt.
