Spring is here

 I think Spring is here. How do I know? I have started seeing wild bunnies out on my morning walks - a couple almost under my feet. The robins are furiously announcing their displeasure as I apparently have come too close to their nests (unknowingly). And I have a couple times walked out to a frog chorus. Spring is my favorite time of year, with crocuses, grape hyacinths, daffodils all bursting forth from the ground. And tulips are next on the horizon. 

Spring is a time of new beginnings, which all of us really need right now after the chaos, fear, and angst of 2020. Maybe now that the corona virus vaccine has come out we can get back to some kind of a new normal. Not the old normal, that is gone. But I believe we can have a new and improved normality, building on the lessons of last year and the changes we can "build back better". And we got a wake up call to never take our health, nor our loved ones, for granted again.

Our Toastmasters conference theme this year is Imagine, Inspire, and Impact. I think it is a perfect mantra for a brand new year of 2021. This blog represents for me a renewed focus on moving forward with energy based on reflections from the past in fully living and enjoying each new day.
