Life has a way of throwing flowers at your feet. For goodness sakes, don't stomp on them! Pay attention! Fancy blooms and a few buds ripening ready to open are just laying there in a heap. Untouched beauty. With a little attention and care and some creative panache, the bouquet is yours to add a warm glow to your surroundings. I love bouquets and I'm determined to keep my eyes wide open to see them when they land.
Conversations that ebb and flow with ease, and the sharing is a deep shade of indigo, bright yellows, perky orange, and the intimacy of a palette of pinks can have the same impact. Connecting with another, knowing the conversation will be one that continues on into another and another, is like having flowers thrown at your feet every single time you meet. With a little attention, care and some creative panache a relationship will add a warm glow to your surroundings....both inside and out. These friendships come from a garden eternally growing blooms of cut flowers to admire from afar, or to snip off in order to create a unique bouquet to beautify your visual field.
No two bouquets are alike. No matter how hard you try to replicate an arrangement, it is always different. The shades of colour, the straightness of the stems, the shape, and the size all play factors in creating a unique display. The container you place them in, the way you handle them, the light reflecting off them, and the surroundings you put them in all.........external factors play a key role in enhancing or distracting from the blooms. But you know what else is just as or even more important? Its what you put of yourself into the creation of the bouquet. Just like any relationship.
Feed them both with love and tenderness.....with appreciation and respect for their beauty. Take care of the little nicks, rough spots and blemishes while admiring the fact that this is what promotes uniqueness, and their gifts will reflect back to you. Gifts you never even imagined.
Blossoming friendships need attention and respect. When they land at your feet, don't ever question why they ended up there. Only God knows that answer and he's not going to be blabbing about it! And for goodness sakes, take good care where you tread. Eyes wide open..........these blossoming friendship are everywhere. This is what makes life so beautiful.
Today, a new bouquet landed........... I will gently arrange the colour and contrast in one of my favourite vases and let it bloom as it will.
As it will..........
