The hard work of growing has started. The world around us is alive with new growth. So let us be. In our part of the world, weather is expected to be sunny and warm, with low humidity. The new seedlings are loving and thriving in the sun. It's a reminder to us to honor nature, get nourishment where we can, and embrace healing and growth. This doesn't mean that the darkness isn't still there, but that focusing our attention on how we can -- individually and collectively -- work for healing and peace helps set a larger intention.
