Silently beneath ground, A seed lays still and cold; Yet there within tiny seed, Is promise yet untold. The promise of springtime, Of fragrant sweet perfume; Is there within tiny seed, In promise of bloom. Think spring, be prepared to bloom!

THINK SPRING, BE PREPARED TO BLOOM!

It is easy to love Spring. Throughout ages, humans have taken a natural delight in participating in Spring's approach and joyously welcoming her arrival. Spring is season of birth. It is season when life and inspiration and creativity arise from her season of hibernation.

We need to welcome spirit of Spring into our inner beings. We need to take delight in beauty and wonder and magnificence around us. We need to be joyful in being alive to experience life and all its gifts and treasures. So many of them have your name on them but are you ready to receive them? Is there room in your soul for them or is your soul in hibernation, still needing to be roused from its slumber?

Sometimes it seems difficult to empower Spring within ourselves. What are we heavy laden with which inhibits us from breaking forth into a new dimension of life, of playfulness, of wonder, of adventure, of exploration, of creativity? Why won't we SPRING FORTH into newness and joy?

While anyone can benefit from taking a calcium supplement, it's a MUST for those that rarely consume dairy products, especially women because of threat of osteoporosis.

So how do you choose a calcium supplement. A form of calcium has recently emerged called coral calcium. It's a natural form of calcium derived from Okinawa marine coral. The amazing thing about coral calcium is that it naturally contains calcium and magnesium in a 2:1 ratio. This biologically perfect ratio gives your body a perfect pH balance while supplying basic ingredients for rejuvenation of body.
