It's Spring!
I can tell when it is spring because my allergies start to really weigh on me. It's unfortunate that a time of year that should be celebrated has to carry with it a little bit of negativity.
Spring, though, is the time of new birth. Those things that have remained dormant for the long winter months begin to sprout and regain life. And of course that new life comes in my favorite color, GREEN!
West Perry is a lot like spring for me. There are a lot of beautiful things happening here and a lot of growth but it isn't without some pain and negativity. I've probably said it before and I'll say it again, change is hard. Sometimes change brings out the worst in us and hopefully for many it also brings out the best in us. That's my hope. Any change that we make is intended for the best.
When I get to a point where I feel the negativity is overcoming me, I walk out the back door of the district office and look at the beautiful green mountains that surround the main campus and I think of all the good that can be done in our little corner of the county and imagine the good that is yet to come.
Enjoy the spring!
