Have you bloomed lately?
Be the centrepiece, not the wallflower!
Don't wait for spring to shed the comforter of inertia that keeps you asleep in the bud,
the permafrost of habit that keeps you stuck in a no-growth zone.
Stop wishing - start working.
Quit waiting - start groundbreaking.
What's the story you've been waiting to be,
the Super Power you've been hiding, the seed you haven't watered,
the calling you've put on hold,
the forgiveness you've withheld,
the next step you haven't taken?
There's a Wild Flower in you waiting to blossom.
A back-to-nature, barefoot zinnia.
A Chanel camellia searching for the spotlight.
A passionflower on the prowl.
A stargazer lily with sky-high dreams.
A rambling rose ready to pull up roots
and see the world.
Spring Blossom - Kruger National Park. South Africa.
This photo was sent to me by my best friend, on a day when I really needed it. But it's where the flower grows that had the most significance. It's a spring blossom in the Kruger National Park in South Africa. "A splash of colour in a very dry and very brown veld". What a lovely gift to send to someone. Today as you read this quote, please remember that no matter what surrounds us, even as barren as life may sometimes appear, ask yourself if you've bloomed lately? Be that splash of colour today.
