I know I posted a while ago about how perfect it is that Easter comes in springtime... but I was struck again today by how much my spirits are lifted by the warmer, sunnier weather. It's so easy for me to spend lots of time indoors and never get outside. I think being indoors (or in a car) too much disconnects us, not only from nature, but from an important part of ourselves.
This is a thoroughly modern problem; we have so much "inside" space (and so many forms of entertainment and channels of communication there). And I'll freely admit it doesn't quite feel so rejuvenating to be outdoors in nasty weather. But I think our connection to the earth and its seasons is essential to being human.
