On Sunday I was pulling weeding...clearing out all that "didn't belong" in my bulb garden and I started thinking....I want to be like a dandelion.
The dandelion sets down roots where it sees fit. In the middle of the lawn...amid other flowers...ya know, where ever. It reaches toward the sky with no shame. Just pure joy in self. It stands alone surrounded by grass. Doesn't need a well manacured purposed and tilled garden area....no! Any ol' spot will do. Doesn't need others around...grouped tightly with others like itself. Nope. The dandelion stands alone. Unique...a rebel.
How could you not like the dandelion? Bright yellow circle...just as the sun. Shining and swaying in the breeze. Defiant. Little does it know...there are many more just like it...across the grass...standing tall, independant and unique. Unashamed....yes....I want to be like the dandelion.
