春回大地，時鐘向前，心也向前 ...
2020 年 3 月 8 日是 spring forward，2026 年 3 月 8 日的今天，也是 spring forward。這往前調快的一小時，真有點名副其實，把加拿大的春天又推近了一步。
今天氣溫有 11°C，天氣預報還有雨。後院那一片片白雪，正慢慢讓位給地上的綠草。連大自然也像知道季節在轉換。太太 Betty 還看見一隻黑松鼠，身上有一小塊顏色較淺、像是冬毛脫落的地方，彷彿正在換上一身新的春裝。
而對我們來說，也有不少事情要忙。花園要整理，屋子要收拾；也為平安而美好的冬天獻上感恩。每當新一季來到，總像喚醒了新的活力、新的想法，也帶來新的方向。
春天也提醒我們：神不會讓我們永遠停留在寒冷之地。那些在冬天裡看似埋藏了、沉寂了、甚至失去生氣的事物，都能在祂的看顧下，再次甦醒過來。按著祂的時間，祂把新的成長、新的力量，以及安靜而美麗的改變，帶進我們生命的每一個角落。
所以也想問問各位 FB 朋友：你們正在計劃什麼春季項目呢？種花種菜？大掃除？裝修整理？寫作？攝影？還是幽默一點地說……包春卷（spring rolls）呢？✨😊
願這個新季節，也推動我們帶著盼望、勤奮、感恩和喜樂，一起向前走。
「因為冬天已往，雨水止住過去了。地上百花開放，百鳥鳴叫的時候已經來到。」 — 雅歌 2章11–12節
Spring Forward, Spring Projects, and Signs of New Life ...
March 8, 2020, was spring forward. March 8, 2026, today, is also spring forward. This one hour forward is truly living up to its name, bringing spring a little closer here in Canada.
Today we have 11°C, with rain in the forecast. The white snow piled in the backyard is giving way to patches of green grass. Even nature seems to know the season is changing. My wife Betty spotted a Black Squirrel with a patch of lighter hair, as if it were shedding its winter fur for a fresh new spring coat.
And for us, there is much to do. Spring cleanup for the garden and the house. Spring joy for a safe and wonderful winter now behind us. A fresh season always seems to awaken fresh energy, fresh ideas, and fresh purpose.
Spring also reminds us that God does not leave us in the cold places forever. What looked buried, silent, or lifeless through winter can begin to breathe again under His care. In His timing, He brings new growth, fresh strength, and quiet beauty into every part of our lives.
So let me ask you, dear FB friends: what spring projects are you contemplating? Gardening? Cleaning? Renovating? Writing? Photographing? Or, humourously speaking ... making spring rolls? ✨😊
May this new season move us forward with hope, diligence, gratitude, and joy.
“See! The winter is past; the rains are over and gone. Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come.” — Song of Solomon Chapter 2 verses 11–12
