“The earth laughs in flowers.” —Ralph Waldo Emerson
Beyond the obvious definition of a flower, there is this secondary definition that seems fitting to my journey right now: “To develop completely and become obvious: Her talent flowered during her later years.” Every child is delighted by flowers! As I healed, this wonder returned in full force! I filled my phone with flower pictures. I leave you with a few—along with quotes.
May your day be filled with the beauty of flowers!



"Every flower is a soul blossoming in nature." —Gérard de Nerval



"Happiness held is the seed; happiness shared is the flower."—John Harrigan



"Where flowers bloom, so does hope." —Lady Bird Johnson


"Flowers are the music of the ground. From earth’s lips spoken without sound."
—Edwin Curran
