I have to admit… I can sometimes join the crowd of pessimistic naysayers that revel in how bad the economy is today and how hopeless it looks for the future. Unfortunately, that attitude causes us to completely overlook the blooming buds of optimism that appear during the Spring of Recession.

• March Was U.S. Stocks’ Best Monthly Gain Since 1991
• U.S. Feb. Pending Home Sales Up 2.1%
• Consumers slightly more confident
• U.S. home sales climb at fastest pace in 10 months
• Certain areas of economy swelling with jobs

Like Kasey Casem said; “keep your feet on the ground, and keep reaching for the stars” (no idea why that popped in my head).
