Maintaining an optimistic outlook can be tough, especially if a person absorbs too much news. I think it’s important to be well informed and we should look at all the world around us, not just the bad news but the good news too. The sun came up this morning, if you are reading this, we can assume you got up this morning too. It’s spring and the crops will soon be seeded. The flowers are starting to sprout. The world is a pretty good place overall.

There are no guarantees, but it looks like winter might be over. It wasn’t the worst winter on record but it certainly felt like the longest one in a while. My farmer friends tell me they are several days away from “getting on the land” although fields are starting to dry up.
Spring is optimism season. My wife is a bit apprehensive about the season, as I have often attempted some form of expansion in the spring time. Makes sense to me, longer daylight hours, warmer weather and a promising future all seem like good conditions to grow and expand.
