Spring with all of its new colors.

The great news is that I now also have our first new dragonflies and they don't waste time to mate. Flitting around at speed all over the place and a nice challenge to get them in flight.

Not only dragonflies, as I want to show you more random new spring season colors. Always delightful and so uplifting, especially to this soul that is now approaching the winter season of his life on this earth. I am talking about myself here, as I have seen many moons and I don't know how many more moons that I will still see. But I don't worry about it, as it is what we do every day that counts.
Gratitude for breath in my body, and with a passion to continue with our work to help the poor simply keeps me going.
Come and have a look at the lovely new spring colors.

If you find that life is flat,
Full of this, with none of that,
Try giving!

Introspection makes it flatter;
A few more years - what will it matter?
Try giving!

If the world is dark and bitter;
Things all tend to make a quitter-
Try giving!

Forget yourself in helping others;
Know that all men are your brothers,
You will see then life is sweeter
Than you thought, and far completer -
When you give!

Margaret Gordon Kuhlman

Spring has hardly started and they are already laying eggs.

I thought that this flower below was a bit crowded with 3 beetles on it.

New green dresses for the trees after a long and hard winter.

Such is life isn't it. I think about all of the ups and downs in my life and how many times new spring seasons have lifted my spirits. The one thing that I know is to just continue in hope, regardless of what life throws at me. At Papillon, we are currently busy inspiring 50 children at a school with lessons of how to overcome their many problems, as many of them live in haggard conditions. The best way to do this is to get a group of people to tell the children how they overcame their own problems in order to rise above them. A set process is followed and I will explain this in another post.
Giving is not all about money, as a smile to a troubled soul can create wonders and the new spring season knows how to raise smiles by simply showing its fresh new colors.

Whatever your season ahead, live it with hope, tackle it by helping others, and always be thankful for each new day.

I hope you have enjoyed the pictures.
