The 56th Mile of Life

Hello Wondering Reader,

It seems that spring has finally arrived. Families will be planning trips and people will be celebrating the transition from a cold winter into a warm flower filled spring. May the allergies be ever in you favor and remember for the people in the back, it is not a shame to were antiperspirant especially on those warm sweltering days. But today, something has floated in my mind and that is what spring represents.

In Greek mythology this is when Persephone returns to her mother Demeter. Because the earth has come back to life and the animals are excited and basking in new foliage and renewal of the world around them. Also, pagans represent this time as a new beginning and change in transition to working on oneself and renewing values and diving into Eostre/ Ostara. Magical and wonderful things always happen in the spring. Maybe this spring it is your chance to set some goals and decided on a course for new beginnings. Maybe you have always wanted to try a different diet. Or even do something thrilling that you have never done before like, hiking a mountain. Maybe this is the time to really start working on oneself creating new boundaries and moving your life in a way to set up for future success. All in all, that’s the meaning of spring. Take advantage of it get a little crazy, step out of your box. Hell, make a bucket list of stuff you have always wanted to try and go out and do it, just don’t hurt yourself. Spring is a time to represent the renewal of one’s soul to find a way to not only love yourself, but also those around you.

I hope each of you have a fantastic week, think about how you want to take advantage of spring and go out and do just that!!

Always,
