A garden story...

While walking through my mother's garden...
I was reminded of what true beauty lies in a garden...
and how symbolic it can be...


because of tender care and proper growing conditions...
these flowers are able to blossom and share their beauty!


Their beauty is enhanced from one-another...
differences become unique qualities...
that when blended together,
form a glorious masterpiece!


They are steadfast and strong...
weathering storms, extreme temperatures,
and sometimes disease...


They don't give-up!
They hold-on...


firmly rooted...
lovingly cared for...



waiting to bloom!


What encouragement and strength can be found in the garden...
a sweet reminder to "plant" ourselves in good soil...
lovingly care for each other...
and be patient...
for the reward is great!


Happy Monday!
Many Blessings!
