September

Spring.

Spring, a time to take a breath, to smell the honeysuckle crowding the branches, to shake off Winter woolies, to feel air on skin, to family get togethers, to food, fish and chips by the beach, wedding bells, the elation of diving into warm water and stepping out to cool air, shared joys, baby leaves sprouting, a new vocation, a camera to capture kindred, animals, health, a clear approach, faith, a sense of calm, a discovery, new passions, forward to fresh territory, a sense of accomplishment, working with my ever-strengthening body, an acceptance of others, their faults, their strengths, their humanity, an adventure, a self-confidence that shines, outweighing other's opinions, a new faith that all is in God's hands and unfolding as it should, a rediscovery of the wonder of play.

A realisation that there will always be another day, but there is no moment like this one.

Spring.
