Spring equinox

3/20/2022

0 Comments

 
I woke at 5.45 this morning.
It wasn't exactly planned, but I'd been open to the possibility of seeing the sunrise today.
It's the spring equinox. Half day half night. A turning point in the year.
The start of spring.
The sun hadn't risen when I woke but the sky was light.
The moon was big and bright and on its way to set in the west.
I got up and dressed and went for a sunrise swim.
Equinoxes only come twice a year. They're special.
I hadn't expected this morning to be as beautiful and clear as it was.
There was frost on a bench and I could see my breath in the air.
A swan hissed and circled me as I got in, then lost interest.
As I swam through the cold water, I thought, What if this is the start of a new year, instead of January 1st?
And what does a new year mean?
Fresh start.
New leaf. Clean slate. Another chance.
Another chance.
Couldn't we all do with another chance?
I make mistakes every day.
I try SO hard to be perfect. But every day I make mistakes.
This morning I forgave myself for my mistakes. And I let myself start again. Fresh.
These moments in the year are such good opportunities.
I wonder what would happen if I let myself start fresh every single day. Even if it wasn't an equinox.
What if I forgave myself anyway?
When I closed my eyes and imagined it, I felt warm and smiled.
So maybe there's something in it...
Happy equinox to you all.
Wishing you spring time fresh start love, no matter how many mistakes you've made,
