.. were those the better days ? ..

090217 Arcade 1a

Remember the days of hanging out in your room, listening to music, doing homework, contemplating the future?  Were you one that worried about your “crush o’the week”?  Or maybe you were worried you weren’t doing so well in algebra?  Or perhaps there was something more serious on your mind?  Depending on the era, your tunes could have ranged from disco to punk to alt rock to pop or even rap or country and perhaps you really didn’t have a worry but just were waiting for the next day to arrive…and the next as the school year began.  But now as you look back, can you believe that the days pass so much faster and the days feel so much shorter now? Crazy.. huh?

.. promise of spring ..

“The spring wakes us, nurtures us and revitalizes us.
How often does your spring come?
If you are a prisoner of the calendar, it comes once a year.
If you are creating authentic power, it comes frequently, or very frequently.”
    ~  Gary Zukav

Sometimes spring comes in so noticeably – the flowers pushing up through the top layer of soil, the buds popping out at the ends of the branches, the birds singing their beautiful songs in the morning air.  But sometimes the season has so many starts and stops and do-overs due to the lingering of the cold and icy winter.  In Second Life, we can celebrate the seasons we enjoy most at any time or we can create our own surroundings to fit our need or want.  I find that summer is the most popular in Second Life with autumn a close second.  Winter is fun and gets a lot of play in December.  We often bleed right from winter into a more summer existence… it is often difficult to discern between spring and summer in this virtual world and maybe even in our real one too… but spring is such a promise, it is often refreshing and new – the colors, the breezes and warming trends in clothing.  We should focus on spring… take the time to welcome it and savor that promise.
