Maybe There's Hope....

It's so easy to get overwhelmed---switch your TV from channel to channel and one is worse than the next..Warren Buffet says we've fallen off a cliff, the wars continue, polar bears are challenged, real estate sales are in the dumps....it seems everywhere we turn there is just more and more. I was feeling this way, on this early spring morning in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, when I looked out my window and saw 100 robins in my front yard---OK I stopped counting at 86 but I know the rest of them were there! In an eternal symbol of spring's imminent arrival, they had stopped to give me the boost I needed! We'll make our way through these challenges, and be better, more grounded people for it! The robins will come and then the spring!
