Precious Time

Time is priceless


Yet it costs me nothing


I can do anything I want with it


But can't own it


I can spend it


But can't keep it


And once I lost it


there is no getting it back.


It's just gone.

Research has shown people live longer when they are surrounded by people they love. We are beings that thrive in community. It is not healthy to deny ourselves human contact. For people that live alone, even a pet has been shown to increase the life span for as much as 5 to 7 years. Those of us blessed with family have been given a gift. They can join us in time of celebration and also in times of tragedy. Having a family to support me as I go through life is of monumental importance. Treasure time...NOW.

Spring Has Sprung!

The air was full of sun and birds,
The fresh air sparkled clearly.
Remembrance wakened in my heart
And I knew I loved her dearly.

The fallows and the leafless trees
And all my spirit tingled.
My earliest thought of love, and Spring's
First puff of perfume mingled.

In my still heart the thoughts awoke,
Came lone by lone together -
Say, birds and Sun and Spring, is Love
A mere affair of weather?
~~Spring Song by Robert Louis Stevenson

After a mostly mild winter, telltale signs of springtime rebirth are seen noticeably...migratory birds returning, trees beginning to bud, crocuses peeking through the last of winter's snow, a few extra minutes of daylight. There is definitely a change in how I feel and even in how I dress.

Our tranquil moments at Crystal Peaks signifies that spring has sure arrived.
