Thank God for SPRING, and thank God it's finally here! This weather has been glorious. The sunshine has done me a world of good, let me just tell you. I was giddy at the sight of the season's first flowers. Giddy. I saw these as I was headed out the door for work last Friday. I called Brandon and begged him to take these pictures for me, I was so afraid they would be gone by the time I'd be able to do it.
This is why green is my favorite color. It is the color of new growth, of renewal, of new beginnings. To me, green, in all its varying verdant shades, is the color of life. It makes me feel buoyant, and alive in a way I haven't felt since autumn descended into winter, to see the pale green shoots pushing up from the ground and reaching for the sunshine. I love the way tender new leaves and delicate petals unfurl. The vibrance and color are a balm after the monochrome desolation of winter. I am invigorated.
