The Rite of Spring

Ahhh, Spring!. The time of year where we start anew, creativity abounds and we find new ways to try and re-invent or recharge our creative batteries. This year is especially rejuvenating for me as my wife and I expect our first child. I am quite certain that I've not really paid attention that last few years to the season of Spring.

Look out the window, go ahead, look. Pretty awesome huh!.

I mean really, think about it. You stare for a moment out the window taking it all in and realize that this happens EVERY year, how come I'm suddenly inspired by it all? I wish I knew the answer to that. One of the many jobs I perform is as a courier for a company that picks up specimans for testing (you really don't wanna know) anyway, I drive a little over 400 miles every weekend and it's through the most awesome countryside in the midwest. The trees and bushes are in bloom and the color is just breath taking. Try it sometime. Just get in the car, yeah I know gas is high, but you don't have to go far. Just take a drive through the country and really look at creation and use that beauty to inspire yourself to do whatever it is you do, better.
