What Is It About This Time Of Year?

Trimming the plants, spring cleaning, big changes at work, and in church they made sure you got the references to Easter and its meaning in there. This is the time of year to let go of old things and embrace the new. It's more difficult when you liked what you had and what is being offered is something less. But, I have learned it firsthand in life, in order to try something new, you have to be willing to stop doing something else. Some of the best surprises in my life were situations like that.
Pretty soon I will be moving away from some great friends and I know that even in this day of instant communication, it is hard to maintain those friendships from a distance, or perhaps THAT itself is the lesson; to keep those friendships going, even if it is more difficult. Then there is the possibility of new friendships and adventures. Maybe even a song or two.
