How to Spell Exuberance








Within a few years, poppies create millions that enliven hillsides and valleys. Spring’s exuberance for life pulses in every niche. Nature teaches us outbursts of joy replenished. It takes over after wars destroy landscapes and fires darken meadows. Innate and eager, it blooms in recovery.


Spring’s messages of growth remind us not to dwell in negativity. We need to move beyond life’s sadness and frustrations. It just requires a twirl of focus to develop curiosity for the marvelous in green, yellows and oranges around us. Contagions of purple and blue enliven the vistas.










This attitude does not mean the constant search for happiness. Rather, a state of buoyancy carries and spreads positive energy. Fragilities will always surround us. Our resilience results from enthusiasm as we approach daily life. It’s a choice that soars us beyond the world’s challenges.

Creative Write: Jump into the exuberance of spring. Take a walk and give emotions to flowers and plants. How would you enthuse a petulent petunia? Argue with a depressed dahlia and encourage its bloom. Rant with eagerness to turn frustration into fun.
