Daffodils
by [Madisyn Taylor](
Almost nothing else represents the emergence of spring, as the beloved yellow daffodil, happy and bright after a long winter's nap.
Some things on this earth look as if they were designed to bring happiness to the hearts of humans. The daffodil, with its bright yellow coloring and green stem, is one such creation. The daffodil makes its appearance in the spring, abundant and inexpensive, bringing gladness as sure as sunshine itself to whoever is lucky enough to receive a single stem, or a bunch, of these delicate yellow miracles. It is as if the sun has shed a layer of skin and fashioned a flower out of it.
Color psychologists suggest that too much yellow can be too stimulating, but in small doses it inspires hope and good cheer. The daffodil is a perfect-sized package of yellow for anyone feeling glum or energetically low. It can spur us to action or simply imbue us with a feeling of optimism as it vibrantly glows in our homes or on our desks at work. The daffodil's presence is ideal in any region where sunshine is scarce as it seems to carry the sun in the soft flesh of its petals. The bulbs are not expensive, and the flowers give so much that you may decide to plant a few in your yard or in a window box. Then again, you may simply wait until they arrive in neat little bundles in the grocery store or flower shop. They are usually very reasonably priced, so you can afford to spoil yourself, and those you love, with a large bouquet.
A daffodil placed under the windshield wiper of a loved one's car says, "Be happy! Spring has sprung! I love you!" A collection of stems gathered and placed in a Mason jar can be left on someone's doorstep to remind them of the simple beauties that abound in this life. Don't forget to bless yourself with a vase of these bright blossoms on your kitchen table or nightstand. Every time you see them, you will be filled with the happiness and warmth of the sun.

DailyOM Course Spotlight
[A Year to Simplify Your Life](
by Stephanie Bennett Vogt
In today's busy world we tend to over-schedule ourselves, piling on more responsibilities, more commitments, and inevitably more stress. Our relationships suffer, our homes fall into disarray and our bodies and souls begin to languish. In our quest for convenience, and in an effort to produce more time in our hectic day, we overload ourselves with all the latest technological advancements, yet we often find that they only invite more complication and disconnect. If we can find ways to dial back the excess and forgo unnecessary (often self-imposed) obligations, we can begin to thrive in ways that are reflected in every area of our lives. Time for self care and soul nourishment, deepening of relationships, and surrounding ourselves with beauty come to the forefront of our priorities as less important list items fall away. This year-long course is designed to help you reduce the overwhelm and simplify your life in ways that lighten, enlighten, and last! Stephanie Bennett Vogt gives you easy to follow, bite sized pieces of wisdom and guidance for reducing the noise and slowing down the pace. She offers a series of simple steps you can take to not only make your life flow better, but feel better!
