Imbolc 2010

As I sit here writing this introduction it is snowing hard in my home state of Maryland. What was supposed to be a light dusting turned into a snow storm. The weather here in Florida is far different. Although it isn't as cold as it is in the northern parts of the country, it is cold for Florida standards. We have had a cold winter and fear that many plants and trees will not survive to see the Spring. Today we went for a walk around the yard. The maple trees have small red buds on them - a sign of new life. There are signs of new life in the grasses that have small green sprouts popping up here and there. Even though things are dormant I have faith that life will spring forth.

With blessings of the Season,

Dawn
