More Spring Growth and Insight

I marvel that I can step outside, into the sudden 77 degree weather sans any external protection. Gone are the cold, dark days of winter where the mere thought of venturing out gave me chills. Then, I required layer upon layer. Now......it's just me and my skin. Every instance when I step out the door, a hundred new sensations along with insights that softly blow and twirl all around me.

The out doors has grown less harsh, more friendly. As if I walk out the door, into the arms of a warm friend that envelopes me.

I don't need all the protective devices once necessary. The times of living in perpetual cold and longing have passed. I've cast off the old and the useless. There is nothing left to hide from or be afraid of.

The storm has passed. I am alone, on the rock.
