There's something about spring that makes me nervous. I feel an anticipatory yearning deep within to achieve something. I want to create, to reconnect, to destroy the old and bring in the new; I want to reinvent myself.

And so it begins. I read books, watch educational TV, talk philosophy with friends, stir up the conversation at work with a little controversy and even talk more on the phone.

Normally, I move through life wanting to go unnoticed. I stay in the shadows, always observing before I commit, making sure I can handle whatever it is I need to do. I've been working on myself these past 9 months. I've made some great progress, stumbled down some wrong paths and left a few injured in my wake. I am not proud of these failures, just owning them.

The problem, it seems, is that I have been trying to drive when I should be a passenger. I haven't the tools or the skills to maneuver this vessel without help. My prayer has been to be shown the way. Today I realize that my soul has all it needs to succeed.

	You will recognize your own path when you come upon it,
	because you will suddenly have all the energy and imagination
	you will ever need.				--Jerry Gillies

Perhaps the sudden burst of enthusiasm you feel isn't really spring fever. Maybe, just maybe, your searching is the Divine Energy calling forth your soul to its Divine Existence. Listen carefully; you don't want to miss a thing.
