My Letter to Spring

Spring is coming and with it brings joy

My Letter to Spring
Bing

The sun hits your face as a breeze blows by sending cherry blossom petals around like snowflakes. The air smells sweet and inviting. Things are coming to life around you. Flowers are popping up in the beds around you, birds flying and singing around.

 

Spring is a time when people are happier and around more. They are friendlier and more willing to go on adventures. Coffee dates, off roading, late night hammocking, bonfires, and mornings watching the sunrises with friends make spring so beautiful. Spring is the beginning of something so beautiful. Spring lets you know that summer is coming.

 

With spring brings trips to the river, hikes around the woods, bike rides, trips to the pool, and iced tea. Spring just brings so many more possibilities than winter. Winter is where things go to die because it is too cold to move or do anything. You run from building to building as quickly as possible because you might die from the frost that is chasing you in your pursuit of warmth.

 

The sun is warm and it just makes you happy, classes become harder, but the fun and excitement grows. Studying outside becomes more and more frequent. Procrastination is real and basically becomes your full time job.

 

Pictures become a daily occurrence and the search for the perfect photo becomes an adventure.

 

Spring is a time of year with new and fresh beginnings. Spring brings love into the air and romance blossoms all around. Couples seem to fall out of the woodwork. People walk around holding hands that you didn’t even know knew each other.

 

Some of my favorite memories are from the spring. It is perfect. Not too hot, not too cold. If there is one thing that I love about spring it is the start of baseball season. I love hitting baseballs around with my friends on the weekends. It is a great form of exercise as well as social activity. Baseball gets you outside in the wonderful sun and moving around getting that cardio.

 

Spring makes me feel inspired, more willing to get things done. Spring allows me to get creative and excited. Spring makes me feel like I live in a fairytale. A magic place where dreams come true, a place of love and talking animals. Spring encourages me that the world is not a dark cold, scary place. There is beauty and happiness all around.

 

The promise of spring is right around the corner. I can feel it. Bring on the picnics and hang outs in the park. Bring on the afternoons of feeding ducks and exploring. Bring on the spontaneous road trips and adventures to find that perfect shot. Bring on the days of basking in the sun and wondering how you ever lived without it before. Bring on the bike rides and creativity. Bring on the joy.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
