Yesterday was sunny and beautiful so I spent part of my lunch break walking with a friend. I enjoyed seeing everyone’s porches ready for summer sitting and children playing in their backyards.
We also noticed this flower growing in a crack in the sidewalk.
If given the chance, nature will always reclaim what is hers even when there’s not much to take root in. To see a plant grow in a small bit of earth in a sea of concrete was gratifying and a source of true joy. It was enough to make me stop for a picture and a smile.
Imagine the will to live necessary to thrive and bloom in these circumstances. There’s grit and glory in this plant and I like it.
My friend said “bloom where you are planted”’as we headed down the street and it reminded me that humans can also bloom where we are planted. We are capable of thriving even when circumstances aren’t ideal and that is indeed a happy thought.
Niçe Looking product my dear
Your words complement your photo. Both are beautiful.
Thank you sir!
That sort of geranium costs a lot at the nursery! 😁
This is true!
It’s pretty amazing how certain plants can be so resilient and grow in the most unlikely of places.
It truly is. There used to be a small tree growing in a patch of dirt on a second story window sill in my town. I need to walk by and see if it’s still there. Talk about a will to live!
