Wishes or Weeds?

I will never forget reading something that said a dandelion can be seen as a million wishes or a ton of weeds.


It is true.


If you blow on those stamen, you are creating a million weeds, or perhaps a million wishes.


My girls see them as wishes.


As a fresh start.


Not as a headache.


Not as something that needs to be "handled" or plucked.


I am not only impressed by their theories.


I try to emulate.


Not always easy.


In fact, nearly impossible.


But to see the possibilities in life, the opportunities.


To see the world through a childs eyes.


A reason to pause, to reimagine.


Life is truly about perspective.


Half full, or half empty?


It is up to you.


Xoxo,

C.
