Treat Every Day Like It Is Your First

A simple Monday thought as the first Tulip in the garden sprung up this morning. Doused with plenty of rain this weekend, this morning’s sunshine brought this first Tulip to life. It’s just a reminder to treat every day like it is your first. That is the spirit of spring; it is what every day is truly all about. And as we venture into the beauty of the season, remember that there is always a surprise in each day, even when there could be clouds of doubt.  
  
This as it is close to wrapping up the month of April, where very few blogs were written this month.  This post written on April 3^rd, 2014  was to celebrate the month of landscape architecture. After I posted this blog, I took my usual hike with my dogs. But there was one tweet I sent out prior to venturing off that morning before my hiking accident. Something made me stop to tweet this before I strapped on my hiking boots to celebrate that beautiful April morning with my dogs. “Some people spend their lifetime chasing awards only to find it’s a piece of paper attached to a board. #dogood first - the world follows.”

With two days left in April, there is still time to celebrate the spirit of spring and the month of Landscape Architecture. But first and foremost, always treat every day like it is your first. #Dogood first – the world follows.  

A special thank you to Mary for your kind words of support and congrats on the book!
