Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Happiness

Springtime along the southern New England coast…winter is so reluctant to give it up. It fights with nasty cold rain or sleet…or bitter wind off the ocean. And then of course it temps and entices us with golden sunshine and a warm glow on your face that makes you feel that everything is right with the world.

The brave Daffodils  are not intimidated and I can see the small shoots as I run along Cliff Walk.

My running is inhibited not only by the nasty weather (but at some point you just have to do it) but also by tax season which demands 10 to 12 hour 7-day work weeks from late January until April 15th.

Running with my iPod, anticipating my favorite early spring song “Little darlin,” (I call it “here comes the sun.” Listen to the inspiring and gratifying lyrics as John Lennon sings about how it’s been a long lonely winter, and here comes the sun.
