The earth is in motion and growth… the gifts are successive;
the favors consecutive; and the refreshing breeze is blowing, wafting the
fragrant perfume of the blossoms. Boundless treasure is in the hand of the King
of Kings! Lift the hem of thy garment in order to receive it.
If we are not happy and joyous at this season, for what
other season shall we wait and for what other time shall we look?
- ‘Abdu'l-Baha ('Baha'i World Faith)
