Today I am sending you flowers.
Sending flowers for the joyful. Flowers to reflect your smile back to you. Flowers with colours that speak of being glad to be alive. Flowers to celebrate today with you.
Sending flowers for those mourning. Flowers to softly hold your sadness. Flowers to speak of comfort and quiet refection. Flowers to share your tears.
Sending flowers for the fighters. Flowers for those who cry out for justice. Flowers for those who will not be silent while inequality exists. Flowers to wish you strength.
Sending flowers for the encouragers. Flowers for those who share tenacious hope. Flowers for those who understand our stumbling growth. Flowers to cheer you on.
Sending flowers for the weary. Flowers to brighten your view. Flowers to say it’s alright to pause to refresh. Flowers to bless your resting.
Sending flowers for the kindhearted. Flowers for those who can be trusted. Flowers for those who see needs small and large, and reach out to help. Flowers to say thank you.
Sending flowers for everyone. Flowers to recognize your uniqueness. Flowers because you can bloom where you are planted. Flowers for lightness in a heavy world.
Flowers are a reminder.
You don’t have to always ‘produce’. You don’t have to ‘finish that list’.
You can take time to be still.
Take time to root yourself in love so you can grow to be who you were made to be. When rooted in love, with each passing year, you shine more beautifully by simply becoming you.
Yours for a kinder and more creative world,
Cheryl O Art
