The Power of the Flower

There's something DIFFERENT about me today

What do you get when you mix Sunshine, warm temperatures, and a PUG? Ahhh, you get a HAPPY CAMPER! Oh it was so lovely this week even IF it got a little hot for this here Pug Princess. I loved going out to our backyard and sitting among the blooming flowers and sprouting fruits and vegetables. It was so ZEN, I tell you.

It got me thinking about those lovely great-smelling FLOWERS that grow all over our yard. Life would be pretty monochromatic if not for the splashes of COLOR from flowers. And the air, although sweet smelling in and of itself, would not be AS sweet as it is when a breeze catches the aroma of a rose.

I loves LOVES loves the difference between a flower, a vegetable blossom and a weed, too. One man's trash is another man's treasure, I guess the saying goes. But really, that has NOTHING to do with what I was getting at. Lemme get back on track, here. They even TASTE different - a-hem, I have heard because NO WAY was I nibbling on the flowers, Auntie T!

The ways a flowers is different from a weed are part of the overall painting that Nature has created. One isn't better or worse - they are just different and unique from each other. Anyhow, I decided to embrace my differences and Molly's differences and Sunshine the Cat's differences. They are what makes us unique and interesting. Those differences are what COLORS our world.

HAPPY THOUGHT OF THE DAY: Embrace your differences and those of others. How colorful our lives are because of them.
