Spring Break...

Spring is a time of renewal. A time when the rain showers come to wash away all of what winter has brought. A time when new growth starts to become evident. A time when animals that have been asleep or just underground for months are finally starting to come to life and see the sun shine again. A time when we all seem to be getting outdoors more. A time when we start to make plans for the months to come.

When we take a break it is usually a time to let go of what we have been doing. A time to drop everything and decide what our next move might be or just a time to relax and let go of what we have known as normal. A time for reflection and meditation. A time to rejuvenate and restore our hearts and minds.

So what is Spring Break? Maybe it is a time to think about what lies ahead and how we can move forward. A time to wake up our own spirits inside and find a strength that has not been obtainable. A time to breathe in the anticipation of what we know is to come. A time to let go of all that we have been doing and saying and go a different direction.

This week is when my boys have "Spring Break" from school. I think we will all be taking a "Spring Break" and find a way to reconstruct and our way of doing family. We will have fun along the way, but mostly we will be processing a plan for the way we do our family living. This is the time for Change. This is the time.
