Spring is definitely here in Sweden. The wonderful smell of flowers continues and some may not be enjoying it quite so much if they have allergies but it is so beautiful to see the newly leafed trees of bright green wafting in the breeze. The sweet smell of spring carried along on the breeze. Lilacs in full bloom here in the southern part of Sweden. We have had a bit of rain as well to get things really popping.

Little babies growing so quickly are such a fun sight to see. They seem to be all over. Malmö has magnificent parks which never disappoint when you walk along the trails. It is such a wonderful place to walk, have a picnic or just to sit in the sun. Last Sunday was a gorgous day and I saw people in lounge chairs in the parks taking advantage of the day. Had I not been on the bus I would have taken a picture.

Despite the beauty all around it has been a tough few days. I have discovered I have quite a few things I still need to work on. My need to control people and life is not helpful to anyone. I need to let go as I have learned to do with my BodyPump class. I can’t take back anything I have done in the past but I can work on the present. I need to let people be who they are. No one is perfect but I also have to figure out what I want and need to heal the wounds in my heart and live my best life.

I am a work in process much like spring with new leaves and babies I can become new myself. It is not easy to face my failings and not let them take me down. I have to stand up again and keep on keeping on. I have to face the fears and challenges to the best of my ability and ask for help when I need it. My friends and family are a strength to me when I feel I can not continue. I have more work to do and so grateful for all those who love and support me. I may not always take the advice I am given or do what is best for me at the time but eventually I will get through it and hopefully not drive you all crazy. Thank you for your love and prayers. ❤
