New growth, new beginnings…my friend’s beardog came through a difficult surgery and has had a good day one. This sweet, courageous dog – he did so well! And thank you to those I called on for prayers – all are people who have been in a similar situation and I know it can be hard to go there as it brings up painful memories.

But…from an old episode of JAG: “We are each angels with only one wing and we can only fly by embracing each other.”

Things are different today for this good dog. They are different for each one of us. It is a new day with new challenges, new situations, new options.

And it is Spring and almost Easter Sunday – both carrying the promise of new life.
