It's the time of year when the Earth begins to awaken from it's winter hibernation. The sun rises earlier and sets later, the days get warmer and the animals come out of hiding. Spring approaches. A time for the celebration of life and new beginnings. Not only for nature, but also for ourselves. Spring is the herald for the coming of Summer, the spark that lights the flame of life and we would do well to take heed of what Mother Nature tells us through the changing of seasons.
Winter is hard. It's cold, desolate, purity, and death. It tests all living things and only the strong survive to see the light of Spring. It is no different for us then it is the animals, the trees or the plants. Only instead of food scarcity we suffer from depression, instead of braving the cold and the wind we must brave the dark side of our hearts.
The coming spring sheds the darkness from the world and melts the frost, ice and snow from the Earth, just as we should melt the negativity and sorrows from our souls. Spring is about the creation of life, the beginning of something beautiful and to let your soul carry the burdens that winter has plagued you with would rob you of the joys that Spring brings. You must not allow yourself to suffer over your suffering.
Now is a time to let go of all that weighs you down, a time to let slip the darkness that holds your heart and rise above it to the light of a new dawn.
