Rainn Wilson Instagram – Happy New Year! In the Persian tradition and in the calendar of the Baha’i Faith, the 1st day of Spring is also the 1st day of the new year. (makes a lot more sense in my mind than some obscure date in the middle of dark winter, no?) Spring is rebirth and growth and potentiality and (literally) more light and warmth. That being said, have a great new day and a great Spring season, my friends! “This day, verily, is the crown of all the months…the day on which the breath of life is wafted over all created things. Great is the blessedness of him who greeteth it with radiance and joy.” — Bahá’u’lláh
