Midweek Reflections: On Naw-Ruz


‘Idál (Justice), 1 Bahá (Splendor), 169 BE – Wednesday, March 21, 2012 about 7:20 AM Pacific Time

It is a New Day
The bright sun scatters night fears
Morning refreshing

It is the first day of a New Year. It is spring. The sun has crossed directly over the equator and the Vernal Equinox has brought spring to the northern hemisphere. The days are long and the nights are short. Our clocks were set ahead because of Daylight Savings Time (that happened last week).

It is the first day of Baha. It is a new month. It is a joyous occasion. It is a beautiful day. It is a fresh start. It is a beautiful day. The morning was a bit chilly, but the temperatures are supposed to warm. It is the first day of Splendor.

It is Naw-Ruz. It is a New Day. It is time to sing and rejoice. It is a time to write odes to the Glory of God. It is a time get out of the house and feel the sun on my head. It is a time to smile and laugh. It is a time to tell everyone about the Glorious New Day we inhabit.

It is a Naw-Ruz
It is a beautiful day
The birds are singing
