My beautiful little sis recently started sending me little notes every morning.  I wake up now and look for them. I really enjoy that spark and love connection every day.  So I had an idea. During the days or weeks between artist / photographer contributions, I thought you might enjoy receiving an archived Rx-for-Healing inspirational graphic every day.

Today’s Gem is about gardens.  Three days ago, I saw my first robin of the year outside my window and thought, “It’s almost spring!” Then I saw another and another!  Soon my family and I were crowded by the window watching  a flock of robins on both side of the street.

The message was clear:  “SPRING IS COMING!”
