| Prompt: "The world's favorite season is spring. All things seem possible in May. : Edwin Way Teale Write about this in your Blog entry today. ------ Spring does have a universal charm, doesn't it! It means birth, renewal, and hope for better, brighter days ahead. It is comforting to watch leafless trees go green again and the flowers bloom, encouraging a surge of creativity and inspiration in artists, poets, and writers. As to the quote in the prompt, "All things seem possible in May," part of this idea is scary for the reason that the meaning in "all things" may contain negatives and even threats of danger. But I'm sure it wasn't what Edwin May Teale meant. Instead of picking on the quote, I think I'll pick up where I left of in the first paragraph here. As to spring's encouragement, it isn't just the external world and the artsy people but something undergoes a transformation within everyone, as well. Most of us feel a sense of renewed vigor and purpose. No wonder most weddings take place in May and June as well as mothers' and fathers' days. We humans do love fresh starts, extra chances for change, and to let go of the old and embrace the new. That is why May, in most places, is the time for planting new seeds and saplings. This is when we regain our confidence in the world, which is filled with infinite promise.,,good and bad.  |
