here’s what I’m thinking...
perhaps we're always “in bloom;”
it’s just not always obvious to us and others.
that our undeniable
capability,
beauty
and capacity for greatness
is always present and powerful even when it can’t be seen by the
naked,
distracted,
and judgment-bestowing
eye.
maybe we’re all like these magnolia flowers in my front yard in that we represent
beauty,
longevity,
and perseverance.
and when you stand for such, I dare suggest that even when you’re not noticeably “in bloom,” you damn well still are.
