Why this word is great
UPSPRING — [Verb] To spring up, rise up, originate, or come into being. From Middle English upspringen, from Old English uppspringan ("to spring up"), equivalent to up- ("upward") + spring ("to leap or emerge"). Unlike "parvenu" (which sneers at the newly rich) or "upstart" (which scorns the ambitious climber), "upspring" is the quiet, unjudged act of emergence itself. It is the first green shoot splitting winter soil, the sudden welling of a spring from buried rock, or the way laughter—unbidden—leaps from the chest when joy surprises you. A word for beginnings, for the small, inevitable rebellions of life against stillness.
