Spring Thoughts


~ Spring is here!
~ There is a spring in my step.
~ The sofa needs a new spring.
~ The creek runs all year because it is fed from a spring. 

I wonder how they all connect. Is there a spring in our steps because that bounce comes with the season? Do they all sort of bubble up like water from the ground? Or did the water bubble up like the buds in the season? Oh, the dictionary tells us it comes from the Old English springan. And from where did springan spring? Time for me to spring from my chair, shower and get ready for the rest (as in remainder, not sleep) of the day. ~ blessings
