Some Spring Inspiration for Everyone....;-)

Dear Blog Friends:
I found this wonderfully inspiring verse in a folder with my college things. Hey, it's Spring...and we all have something to grow in the Spring! Enjoy!
*******************************************************
How to Grow a Dream:
Take one great idea
Plant it in soil rich with inspiration
Nurture it with confidence, originality, common sense, and vision
Surround it with hardworking friends and colleagues
(Weed out all pessimists!)
Cultivate it lovingly for several years
Share your harvest with loved ones and fellow dreamers.
****************************************************
Yes, the metaphors have been beaten more than buttercream frosting, but you can glean the sense from this all.
Today....take a moment to assess what brings joy to your heart. Take a walk and see how Nature is constantly working its magic....Call a friend who might need a quick jolt of encouragement...Go to the Goodwill or Salvation Army store (with a bag of clothes you will never actually wear to give to THEM!) and pick up a cookbook to read at the beach this Summer. Take care of YOU. Give to others, too---good Karma always come back 3 times over, they say!
And...again...if you like to cook (which I hope that is why you are here reading me), try a new recipe out, bake a batch of cookies for the Volunteers at the Fire or Police Station (they risk their lives for others!), or organize some great new recipes for your next evening soiree!
Have a great day....or whichever day you wish for!
