Spring...

By Vichara

Outside of where I “sit” is a large wisteria that over the years has taken over a corner of the house and has made it’s way to the second floor deck. In the winter months it is spindly, bare and without its hardy green leaves and purple flowers looks sad. During these months I miss the thick foliage that hugs the deck. So when spring comes and it explodes with color I feel once again happy that my green friend is back. Also at this time the wisteria sprouts new vine shoots that quickly establish themselves in the new growth and send out these tentacles that reach for new parts of anywhere that it can hang on to and further the wisteria’s presence. They are like emissaries sent out seeking new ground. Hopefully for all of you with spring gradually making its presence you will feel reawakened and with your heart and mind send out your curious tentacles of adventure to reach out new avenues of thought and understanding through books, video, conversation or some other methodology. Awaken the spring that is in your heart and soul and establish new growth and adventure.
