In April the Madeira Flower Festival is celebrated annually and honors the beginning of Spring in Portugal. Each child on the island is invited to bring a bloom to make the Muro da Esperança (Wall of Hope), and intricate flower carpets line the streets.
Affirmation
We are made for beauty. There is always new life. We celebrate new life within us and in the world. We revel in beauty.
Gentle Call to Action
Look for cross cultural Springtime celebrations to attend. Communities around the world harken in Spring in a number of beautiful ways.
