Spring! New Beginnings!

As the saying goes, "Today is the first day of the rest of your life." And when I begin to see signs of spring, I begin to feel a sense of renewal. New growth, new beginnings. Sometimes it feels good to step outside in my back yard and take a deep breath of fresh air.

As silly as it may sound, I love the smell of dirt. Planting flowers and growing vegetables used to be one of my favorite things to do. Now it is hard to do so, but I am considering trying to grow a small pot garden. At least it will be easier to maintain because I won't have to stoop way down on the ground to weed. Window sill gardens can be nice. Being creative is key.

I think that if I can get myself a bag of potting soil and some seeds, I could begin some seedlings. It won't be strenuous and I will get to watch the new growth. I can feel myself getting excited already at this idea! It will be worth it to carve out a little bit of time to accomplish this. It is all about feeling good and finding enjoyment in spite of discomforts and limitations. And the blooms and fresh veggies will be wonderful rewards for my efforts!
