Today was beautiful here in southeast Oklahoma! We had blue skies and temperatures in the high 70's...PERFECT! There aren't a lot of perfect things in life, so a day like today should be enjoyed. I took a drive up to my Mom's and all along the way people were outside in their yards, or taking walks, or sitting on the patio, just enjoying the day.
Winter is finally over, it seems, and we had a particularly long one here. The thing about winter that bugs me the most is not the cold temperatures. I can handle the cold by bundling up and staying indoors by the fire. What bugs me the most about winter is the darkness of it. The overcast grey skies and the weakness of the sun can make for some dark days.
Then comes Spring...sunshine...warmth...the Earth coming back to life after her long sleep...everything green again...Hallelujah!! I feel like I have come back to life after a long sleep as well.
Thank you, God, for giving us such a beautiful world to live in. Let's enjoy it all we can.
Welcome Springtime, we greet you with smiles and happy hearts!
