The richness I achieve comes from Nature, the source of my inspiration.

I tend to agree with Mr Monet. Nature ranks close to the top as a souce of inspiration for me.

Felix, Emma and I went tramping off in the pouring rain today. Did we care? No. We wanted to enjoy the abundance of Nature no matter what mood she was in.

An exciting thing happened as we splashed through puddles: I could smell the sweet scent of the earht again. Spring would soon be here.

Cold weather puts a damper on the scents of the earth, as if her pours shrink in the cold and close up keeping the fragrance of life close to her chest.

Today I smelt that lovely blend of greeness, new growth, and decay. My steps developed a spring!

Another thought: Do trees fear winter? Do they know at leaf drop if rebirth is certain? Do they know with spring life will surge through their veins again?

What do you think?
