Flowers… are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty outvalues all the utilities of the world
Ralph Waldo Emerson
If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, our whole life would change.
Buddha
Our house always has vases of cut flowers all year round. They bring light, hope and beauty into each of our days. Even with her dementia progressing, Mom loves flowers more than almost anything. We also have sunflowers, orchids, African violets, and camellias, gardenias and azaleas during their seasons.
What would we do without these glorious reminders of the miracle of creation? How can you look at a flower and not thank God for filling the world with so many endless varieties of colors, shapes and forms, growing, blooming, dying and making room for other flowers.
I will always photograph them. They are among my grandest passions. They are infinitely wondrous to behold.
I’ve taken these photos in the past year:

Flowers do brighten days and moods! Some beautiful days I wonder how someone couldn't believe in God when so many miraculous beings are out - the flowers, the trees, the sunshine, the blue sky - those are the times that soothe my soul and I have to think of the line "God's in His heaven/all's right with the world!" Your pictures bring out their beauty.
