I think you are right, Christy, about the great minds and the great mysteries of the world. Your photos are magical and so, so beautiful.

I don’t have dahlias, but every year I take close up pictures day after day of the lilacs blooming, as well as the peonies, the roses, and several other flowers…as well as little leaf buds unfurling day by day with a plethora of tender colors before they become almost uniformly green. There’s so much to learn here, but it takes time and patience and a willingness to breathe along with the process, because wisdom, knowledge, and solutions never come quickly or easily, despite what so many think or want. And it changes every time, which means there’s something new to observe and learn with each unfolding, each blossoming, every becoming.

Flowers as teachers, indeed. Including the lilies of the field 💕

YES! And beautiful. We can see this and the larger unfolding of LIFE as we enter the silent, contemplative, and meditative place.

Unfolding Dahlias…

“astonishing unveiling.”

Like in larger life?
