Hey, if you haven't checked out the new Questions & Reflections: The Group
please do - already over 80 members and just been around a day! Wheee!
So, I tried to put my picture but I know, I know it never works from email so...
i'm not, most emphatically not, a gardener, and so I have many wild flowers and weeds on my property. i decided to take a picture of some that i find very lovely on my new Blackberry Curve, which has a much better camera than my old BB...
for me, it is a metaphor for my life - chaotic in places but full of unexpected beauty if you look at it right...

Very pretty Ms. Nicole. and what wisdom there packed in that last sentence–chaotic in places but full of unexpected beauty if you look at it right… that sounds just right.
ooh, thich nhat hanh is always so wise! thank you, thank you so much for that, dear one!
Kathy, you really understand my heart… hugs
I second and echo Centria's thoughts.
Wildflower

thanks my dear! for some reason i can't open any youtube videos but the thought is what counts! hugs
I love your last sentence, about finding unexpected beauty, if you look just right. I like the way you think!
Hugs
and i love the way you are, and write, and love! and think :) i was just leaving a comment over on your blog, as you were commenting on mine. the synchronicity of love and Gaia!
Such a beautiful flower you are :)
awwww thank you! and you! big hugs
Sorry late to this, have been tied up helping my prodigal daughter. From what you say several losses one after the other no wonder you were down for a while, however your last sentence much more hopeful and you sound much ,more like the flowers are blooming now, grins, may you go from strength to strength. Hugs.
thanks my dear friend! you give me courage on a day when i am a little low in energy and spirits. hugs!
beautiful flowers! metaphors are the best way of expression!
thank you… they are indeed most eloquent, in ways we don't always fully understand
Finally, I found your wild-flower garden, Nic…..and mmm…..wild is extremely beautiful here…. :-)
thanks my dear friend! Alas, the city hath had its way, and I had to have my son get it all trimmed down to respectability or incur a fine. But at least I have this picture to remember some of its former wild glory! :)
Yikes!!!! This means I have to prune my rainforest next year for sure. Holy Lord, what's this world coming to…..people love concrete more than wild flowers…..;-))
But hmm….psst…Nic….there is hope for me…. I have this piece of backyard totally unwatched by neighborly eyes….and I am going to keep it as rebellious and as wild as Nature herself. Lol. So there, City…so there….. :-))
Yes! Victory! :):)
Lol. Yay!
*grins*
beautiful flowers :)
thanks, sweet Star Child! Big hugs to you, and my mischievous sister Amy.
