I get the feeling that Spring is a comedian, with the ‘laughter of crisp dawn’, Viv. She certainly cheers us up. I love the way she takes the stage and can’t wait for more of her giggling blossoms.

It is good you have spring coming. Here in Australia we are still in summer that lasts as long as it likes probably to April! Then our winter is something like a bad English summer!

Hi Vivian! I love your big plans. Each one is powerful. I have a spiritual teacher John-Roger, and he said that “To know more of the Soul, look with the eyes and hear with the ears of gratitude.”
I’m about to take a good friend to the airport, her husband has some health challenges. I’m taking good care of myself (getting a massage tonight). And preparing to start an online group on Self-Forgiveness and Money as part of my coaching practice. A full life — and I love it!
Blessings Vivian. Thanks for asking. 🙂
Debbie
