Greetings to you all wonderful readers.
I hope you had a good week?
From Thursday this week I will be away on an eight day
pilgrimage to Medjugorje in the former Yugoslavia. For those of you who do not
know about Medjugorje, I will be talking about it when I come back.
So for now I will continue to take you into the pages
of The Next of Kin but before that:
I am a newbie to flower arranging. I absolutely love it!
I love watching the YouTube videos especially those by World Beauty, she is absolutely
amazing.
In the supermarkets and florist shops, the sunflowers
are so alive here London. Incidentally, someone sent me a very heart-warming
story of sunflowers.
I very much wanted to share this with you and hope it
touches your heart as it did mine.
SUNFLOWERS
Sunflowers turn according to the position of the sun.
In other words, they “chase the light.” You might already know this, but there
is another fact that you probably do not know! Have you ever wondered what
happens on cloudy and rainy days when the sun is completely covered by clouds? This is an interesting question. Isn’t it?
Perhaps you think the sunflower withers or turns its
head towards the ground. Is this what crossed your mind? Well, that’s
incorrect!
This is what happens:
They turn towards each other to share their energy. Nature’s
perfection is amazing. Now let’s apply this reflection to our lives. Many
people may become low-spirited, and the most vulnerable ones even become
depressed.
How about following the example of the beautiful
sunflowers, that is, "supporting and empowering each other". Nature
has so much to teach us.
Wishing everyone a "Sun flower" trait of
turning towards each other in our cloudy and gloomy days. Spread goodness...it
will come back to you…
