Sunday, 16 April 2006 - Daffodils and Easter

Dear God:

Today, I am thankful for daffodils and Easter.

The daffodils almost bloomed today. Apparently, they need a few more days before they show their bright yellow faces in my garden. I am watchful. Daffodils are among my favorite flowers because, in Los Angeles, they bloomed around my birthday. In Colorado, they bloom around Easter.

Despite my disappointment with the daffodils, I did celebrate Easter at a local church. This year, in particular, Easter means more to me than Christ's resurrection. It signifies my own rebirth and renewal. I think that Jesus would approve.

For this blessing, I am grateful.

Amen.
