Hope in the beauty of Spring

There is an intrinsic beauty brought by Spring.
Hope spreads all around us as we watch flowers bloom,
birds sing and the earth become alive with song and color...
I cannot wait to sit outside and listen to all of the sounds of hope.
Flowers will bloom and the breeze will
usher in an excitement of renewal that can only
be felt this time of year! These are shots of my back porch from last year.
I cannot wait to make it all look this pretty again!
May your day be blessed and you begin to pick out the
hope that spring is about to bring!

    Hi Olivia,
    I have just discovered your lovely blog. It is as fresh and pretty as Spring itself!
    I'm very interested in the Chronic Pain journal as well, I find your approach so positive. I admire that you share your ups and downs. I suffer from almost daily migraines, which have affected life in all sorts of ways. I mostly don't say much about it, but maybe I will!
    Thankyou for your inspiration.
    I look forward to visiting again.
    Hugs to you,
    H.

      Hello darling friend! Thank you ever so much for stopping by. I am sorry to here you struggle with migraines...urgh...I have been there too, no fun. I cannot even imagine having them daily! I am so interested to see how many ladies silently suffer. I feel like my Chronic diary is a way to share and connect and it just plain helps me not feel alone. I try to post on the positive stuff that way I can re read my own advice to help me on the bad days! Hang in there! Blessings and hugs!

    Hi Olivia! I am so ready for spring, too. I am dreaming of sitting on my from porch (drinking that strong cup of java!) and basking in the morning sun, listening to the birdies sing. Love your porch!
