spring approaches

Now that Spring approaches I'm reviewing old photos from last Summer. Certainly I feel a progression in my understanding since then. Each year brings better prospects, and successive years, on reflection, are not as lackluster or bereft of interest as I thought. I am accomplishing things: as a minister, an artist, a person, a husband and a friend. At 53 (this July) I have some years of productivity remaining. Possibilities of connection remain. I can be useful in a wider way, a way that utilizes my skills, pastorally and artistically.
