Spring knocked on my door

It has been a mixed bag as far as winter weather is concerned. An almost unidentifiable season in our region. No white stuff, more than our share of wind and a good doses of water. Having seen the news from around the world- it almost appears if our weather system has lost the plot.

There are people who suffer from winter depression and almost disappear from our radar during these dark months. How sad and burdensome this period must be for them. Luckily winter turns into spring and the light brings new energy. Faces re-appear and join our ranks once again.

By nature ( and generally speaking) I am a positive person, not affected in that way by any of the seasons. However, my experience this past month, due to my physical un-wellness, was unrecognisably dark. After almost drowning in a misere- I have resurfaced into the light. I feel spring has sprung in my life again and I have left the darkness of that season behind me.

It occurred to me funnily enough the we need these seasons in life to recognise the differences. We need our journey through the desert in the dryness and scorching heat, the strolls along tree lined lanes and moments in colourful gardens where we find time to smell the roses.

Awareness, situations, solutions and emotions! 
All ingredients for a full and sensation-filled life.

The highLIGHTS during the past weeks have come from the people who have supported and surrounded me with GOD' S love. With their faithful friendship and prayerful support. Through their presence and actions they blew away the dark clouds and made it possible for the sun to reappear and shine it's warm rays in the dark corners of my being.

My head is clear, my heart is joyful, my enthusiasm for each dawn is keen and ready to face a new day!
