Happy May day!
I did a little research about this day and found that it has always been a day of celebrating the return of spring, flowers, and abundance. What a great day to celebrate!!
Unlike the spring solstice, this is not the beginning of the return of the sun and unlike the autumn equinox it is not about the taking in of our harvest. This firs day of may is uniquely about celebrating the moment. Of enjoying the beautiful open flowers after a long winter and rainy spring. To celebrate beauty and life. To let the joy of life bubble out of us in loud laughing, big hugs, dancing to our inner music and just all out feeling great!
I remember being a kid in grade school and making paper baskets with paper flowers and being so excited to take them home. To leave them on the doorstep and wait with baited breath to see who would open the door and get my spring offering. It was as much fun for me to give as it was for who ever got my paper flowers.

Now that I am and adult I still get a thrill out of giving flowers. They symbolize so many things, thoughtfulness, friendship, love...all with bright colors and beautiful scents.
A bunch of flowers are a reminder to slow down and admire beauty in our world.
Why not take today to return to that exciting childhood moment of giving someone something beautiful and full of love. Don't just think about doing it, take action and pick up some flowers, draw, color, or paint some flowers and give them to someone you love. A friend, a child, a lover, a parent...anyone who brings joy to you, give back to them...just to make them happy. I am willing to bet that you will find that it makes you happy too!!
Have a Great Day!
