Alexa play “Spring I. Allegro” by Antonio Vivaldi

Ahhh spring. The time to breath in the fresh roses and bask in the warmth of the sun. Spring is a time of new beginnings, new comings, new EVERYHING! Sad to see the winter go, but it is time for something new!

This past winter has been an interesting one. I’ve accomplished many great things, let go of some things, started some things, discovered some things, and I even been introduced to new things. This winter has overall been a period of change for me. Has the change been good? I would say yes. Has the change been healthy? I would say yes. Has the change made me sad? I would, again, have to say yes. If you’re like me, you have a love-hate relationship with change.

Change comes in all different forms. For me, the biggest change this winter was coming to terms with people leaving and entering my life. I don’t do well with people leaving my life. Now, when people come into my life, I am a little more accepting of that change. Matter of fact, I am more than accepting of new people. I encourage people to enter my life. I surround myself with people who lift me up and I want to lift others up as well. Sadly, however, people aren’t always permanent in your life. I think this is a lesson I am still learning. No matter how badly you want people to stay, some just aren’t meant to.

With Spring fast approaching, I want to really focus myself on this period of new comings. I want to allow myself to be open to what’s coming. I want my full heart to be put into the next couple of months. I have broken down my goals for the new season into the categories of what I want to change in my life spiritually, mentally, and physically.

Spiritually, I want to connect more with the earth. I have lived my whole life living on this planet without fully looking around to see what I’m actually living on. No, this isn’t some bandwagon I’m joining to popularize the trend of “saving the earth” hashtags that are circling the internet. I genuinely want to start seeing the world. I want to travel. I want to see things that the earth has to offer. This comes from the recent videos of Spanish-speaking countries that I’ve watched in my Spanish 2 class. In the videos, I see the world in ways I’ve never seen before. I want to go to those places and feel the earth in its most purest form. I want to connect myself with those spots and feel the earth as the earth feels me. The mere thought makes me feel good inside. I can’t wait!

Mentally, I want to focus more on my mental health. I often neglect my health mentally, whereas I’m almost always focused on my health physically. I am actually considering going to a therapist to talk about things that plague my mind and put a strain on myself. I have so much to do in my life that I completely neglect that part of myself—the part I need most. In this new season, I want to seriously care for and cater to that part of myself. It is just as important as anything else in my life, and it’s time I started treating it as such.

Physically, I need to focus on getting my SUMMER BAWDY! I have told myself so many times that I am going to start eating right and working out…BUT WHAT HAVE I BEEN DOING??? SLEEPING. I need to take this season with all the warm weather to get outside and workout. I need to establish a healthy diet and just start physically caring for myself. I know the body I want and I am determined to get there before the summer. With the summer coming soon after spring, I need to start grinding ASAP!

Well, that’s my spill on the upcoming season. I feel pretty prepared to take it on (despite the inevitable pollen that will try to kill me). Are you ready for the spring? Do you have your goals for the season in line? ARE YPU READY??
