I recently moved from Flagstaff where Springtime is nice with a few pink flowered trees, and budding out of the Cottonwood trees, to Hood River where it is exploding with color. Trees with a pink tulip looking flower at the end of each branch, white flowering trees on every corner and peach and apple trees beginning to bud with tiny green fingers reaching for the sun.

This song is a heartfelt exploration of love in its many forms—tender, enduring, and deeply human. Through poetic imagery and a gentle, reflective tone, it traces the emotional arc of love from whispered beginnings to unwavering bonds.

Each of us develops our own strengths. These come from choices and experience, often over long periods of time. I’ve noticed three types of strengths that one can develop into a living and learning style unique to them.

From the things I have heard from others during my travels over the past almost 5 years now, I believe what we have all been going through equals the title of the popular bluegrass song, “Hard Times.”

These days, many choose to release material things that are taking up space in a house they want to sell or simply want more room. With age can come that knowing that material possessions do not have the same significance they did in our younger years. This has created a whole organizer coaching business as well as all the tools one could ever want and more to help you organize.

From: The Whole Truth—The Spiritual Legacy of Paul Twitchell
Chapter 10
A few chapters back, we discussed the idea that by publicly passing judgment upon others we can freeze our perceptions about them and limit our ability to learn. When our criticisms are displayed before the world and we fight to defend what we have said, this tends to solidify our opinions. We become committed to a stance. We draw a line in the sand for the world to see, and this makes it more difficult for our point of view to flow and change smoothly to see things differently. This problem represents the tip of an interesting iceberg.

“Be the one who chooses love above all else.”
A short while after writing that line in the song, “Be the One,” I received word that a teammate from Linfield with whom I had played baseball was in hospice.

This year, on the date of the 2025 Spring Equinox, my wife and I signed up for Hulu, the streaming service now owned by Walt Disney. It seemed like a small, ordinary decision—just another subscription among many. But what followed was surprising.

As humans in a dynamic world, we’re constantly reminded of our vulnerabilities. Everyone’s life has ups and downs. Yet Spirit’s presence remains. How is it that some feel connected while others don’t? For me, it depends on where I put my attention. Recently, I took myself to lunch. Suddenly, it struck me that doing such a thing a few years ago would have been too painful!

What I’ve found, what so many others have already found, is their own special appointment with love.
