Oh How Time Flies

So as you all know from my previous post, it has been a while since I have even visited my blog. I know, "why start something if you can't keep it up." Mostly because it is something I want to do, but I am still working on all the logistics.

Spring is in full bloom here in Idaho, and gosh-golly is it beautiful. (Although my allergies don't agree). Our tulips, and daffodils have been amazing! Just look!




The blossoming trees reminded me of a song I sang in my college choir. The song is titled "The Long Road" it was composed by Eriks EÅ¡envalds. 

The line goes: 

"...like a flow'ring tree the world is blooming. 
Overwhelmed, my heart both cries and laughs."

If you haven't heard this song I highly recommend it, even if it is a recording in Eriks native Latvian, the song is etherial, calming, and hauntingly beautiful.

The nature that is all around us is so precious and beautiful, but I find myself forgetting to stop and awe at is magnificence. When I do, I am surprised at how complex everything is.

Well that's all I have today. Write to you again soon!

So Its Been a While...

Well, over the past couple of years I have been really busy. (I got a job as a Children's Librarian) Also since I am not used to having a blog I am not prepared to make regular posts. I would like to address however what will be appearing on this blog. *Ahem* First and foremost, any passing thoughts that I find interesting and/or inspirational. Second, some essays and other writings that I will do or I already have done. Third, I think I will write some book reviews (I know I am not a professional, but I like books and I would like to say what I think of them). Fourth, story ideas that I don't know how to complete, but think the ideas should be out there. Fifth, my art and decorating things!

Yeah that seems like a pretty good list. I just hope I can get better at posting! Anyway, goodnight my friends and I will do my best to post again soon!
Here's a doodle from me!
