What are you excited about today? What good news are you anticipating. If we race through life we miss out on so many things that could pump up our zest for living. Here’s an example, spring (la primavera in San Antonio) is busting out all around me. Red bud trees are in bloom. Tulips are popping up. The migratory birds have returned. And, the wild flowers will be showing up any day now. That’s enough to get your blood moving. What about coming home for work and seeing the people who love you. That’s a powerful anticipator. Poet Amy Lowell said it well in the first verse to her poem, Anticipation:
I have been temperate always,
But I am like to be very drunk
With your coming.
C’mon, let’s crank it up a bit and get excited about life.
