Words

This morning I was reading from John O'Donohue's book - Eternal Echoes This passage caught my mind from Wittgenstein : 'The limits of my language mean the limits of my world'  Wow I have always been drawn to words, the power they hold in them.  The Bible say, in the beginning was the word... The wonderful and brilliant Maya Angelou said words have power , they are things, they get into you, be careful of the words you use. The word.

Therefore, since we don't see the tulips pushing through the cold ground or see the grass revealed, trampled and worn from the heavy snow of winter as many do in less northern climates do. We can still experience the feeling of spring. Colour, life, freshness, and renewal are the gifts each spring shares with us. We have cycled through the hibernating energy of winter. It is now time to shine with renewed sense of wonder, of life. This is how I feel when I experience spring in a vase. How does spring affect you?
