Happy 1st Day of Spring!

Good morning & happy first day of spring!

We've made it through another winter and now it's spring, glorious spring. Dogwoods, azaleas, irises, fresh new leaves...the beauty and joy of spring. Guess you can tell what my favorite season is, huh?

Why do I love spring so much? Perhaps I was a druid in another life. More likely, it is because spring represents a renewal, a time to take a new approach, to make amends and to start again. I've never understood why a new year starts in the dead of winter. A new year should start with spring. This is the time for resolutions and promises to do better, to be better.

So, what spring resolutions do you want to make this year? We've got a mere three months and then it will be summer. What can you do during the next 90 days to make yourself emotionally, spiritually, and physically healthier?

Here's what I resolve to do:

1. Emotional health - tell the truth to myself and to others. When I don't trust someone enough to tell the truth, that's my cue to question my participation in that particular relationship.

2. Spiritual health - tell the truth about what I'm feeling and why, journal each night, meditate for at least 10 minutes a day, pray, spend time enjoying nature, blog five times a week, clean and organize my office and bedroom.

3. Physical health - tell the truth to myself about the frequency and intensity of my exercising, go to water aerobics class 3 times a week, go to pilates or another class 2 times a week.

All righty, then. These are ambitious goals and I believe I can do them. After all, everything that I've listed is an investment in the person I love most - me.

Now, it's your turn. What are your personal investment goals for the next 90 days?
