2. state of nervous excitement
3. how I feel aboutcha

I feel alive again. Is it because of the lovely trail walks with its touches of greens, purples, and yellows, or the warmer temperatures and open windows, or the tiny bit of tan on my cheeks? Do I have the fever?
What I feel is the excitement of this new season and of the months ahead. Spring makes everything new and fresh. Adventure is in the air. The senses are filled with excited anticipation of hope and love. Twitterpation. The state of being twitterpated.
I first heard of twitterpated on the Disney movie, Bambi. Well, actually, it’s the only place I’ve ever heard it. As a hopeless romantic, I’ve always be fond of the word. Longing for love; to love, and to be loved. I may be pushing 62 but my heart is still 18. When I was young, I believed that the mind aged like the body, but that is just not so. It’s a pretty cool reality. A welcomed gift.

Hopefully, you feel this spiritual awakening too. No matter what you choose to call it, spring fever or twitterpation, just run with it. Leave old man winter behind and feel the excitement of another spring. Bask in the warmth of the sun and let youthful love fill your heart and soul. ♥️
