What do we call this season?
Is it a season at all?
When winter is late, and still hasn't come,
When spring is still just a hope buried in the ground.
When the earth is ready for a blanket of white,
Just waiting in a bleak, beige, dry stage.
When Mother Nature's clock is broken
And the Earth's axis is one degree off.
When clouds don't offer a single drop of rain
To wake the flowers up and add color to the landscape.
But then the next day it starts to snow,
Finally a season claims Utah as its own!
(But I was hoping it would be Spring.)

Focusing on the good doesn't mean we ignore the sad stuff going on, refuse to ever watch the news, or be ignorant of pressing matters around the world. It just means that you cling to hope, never give up, fight discouragement and let the good into your life. Let the good in, put some good out, let light radiate fr...
