H words

Humidity. Who knew such a relatively un-talked about thing could make such a difference? (ok well i know it makes a big difference but you don't hear people talk about it much) It smells like spring.....I feel happier....more people are smiling today.

Sometimes I feel like coming out of winter is like coming out of a dark, depressing, battle. You've fought for months, and on the horizon the first gleams of sunlight break and splash onto your face. You stand up and feel something stir in your soul. Hope. New life is about ready to burst forth. You breath in deeply and can't help but feel that no matter what happens, everything will be ok. Even your body feels like it has more energy.

It kind of brings to mind (for me) the whole Lord of the Rings vibe. How evil was oppressing everyone around and when evil was finally conquered there was more light, more green, more happiness, more hope.

Here's to you spring. *raises sobe bottle and clinks glasses with mother nature*
