almost all the snow is gone..
and warm air has moved in
my spirit feels more alive
less paralyzed by the chill of winter
this is a good thing.

winter taught me new things about myself
things i would of never thought or known
if i hadn't endured, fought, and struggled
so I am thankful.

spring however makes me joyous!
new season of flip flops, t-shirts, shorts..
and new season of upcoming marriage
plans, friends, family - husband to be.
there is light at the end of this tunnel
i feel it in my bones and i know it to be true

some days are up and others are down
but each day is truely a gift from God..
struggle or ease, it is all a gift.. and blessing
and i want to embrace it as such
it's not always so easy..
it's easier for me to worry, complain, and cry

i sort of feel like everything has been slow motion..
but i have a feeling things are going to just start swirling around me
and not stop... time will move fast, things will happen
and everything will just move..
wedding invites, rsvp, showers, friends, family, marriage, honeymoon
boom it's over!
but that's okay.. it's a season.. of excitement, yes and hope and love
still a season..

i can't wait for the next season, but i will enjoy this season too!
although sometimes its hard, i know God strengthens me each and everyday
I have so much to be thankful for..
