I've just had a very good week, on a roll, focused, full of creative energy, getting a lot done, haven't wanted to rest for more than 10 minutes at a time. I feel like I am the spring time. It just feels great to finally have spring back! And now I’m responding to the long pent up desire for warm air and new life.
At night, I just don't want to quit the three things I'm still working on, and I keep at it until I drop. Then, not so many hours later, my eyes open to sunlight, and I can't wait to face the day. This feels good.
I've found a steady rhythm to my days whenever I'm here at Hearth Hill. When I tune in to that, when I play to that beat, I feel so vital, life seems nearly effortless, and I just seem to get things done.
This is so compelling and satisfying, that giving it up is like having that first, perfect morning cafe taken from your hand just as you lift it to your lips. Every time I’m away from here -- no matter how wonderful a time I have -- each time I’m more anxious to get back than the last.
This past winter was a hard one, personally. But, looking back at it, I’m feeling very good about all I accomplished. Because what I erected in the dark months is the springboard on which I now joyfully bounce.
Weeeeee! Here we go!
