I was so excited to see this single rose blooming in my yard this week (yes, it’s Autumn) that I squealed with glee!
On many occasions, the rosebush looks dry, dormant, and DEAD. Yet, the roses that emerge (on on their own schedule, might I add) never cease to amaze me. This rosebush has survived a summer of sustained, sweltering Southern heat. It has prevailed through hurricane force winds and soaking torrents.
Nevertheless, it continues to bloom and flourish – in spite of its environment and circumstances. As a matter of fact, this natural work of artistic wonder is surrounded by dead-looking, withered blooms and spiky thorns.
In its appointed time, each rose that is embedded in the DNA of that rosebush comes forth as the beautiful creation it was intended and designed to be.
What do YOU see? Perhaps there’s a hidden rose just waiting to be discovered, cultivated, nurtured, appreciated…around you, or even in you…
It’s a matter of perspective…and patience.⏳ Open your eyes 👀 and bloom on, my friend!🌹
