BEAUTY IN ALL THINGS.
Why can't dandelions be beautiful? I think they can; they are. This Spring the vacant house next door to me had a lawn the was totally uncared for and all of a sudden a million dandelions sprang up. Their golden yellow blossoms were a cheer each morning as I sat on the deck or balcony having my jump-start of coffee. On a particularly breezy day it was wonderful to observe the waves of yellow undulate across the field. It reminded me so much of the wind on the wheat fields on my cousins' farms that I used to visit as a child.
I am so thankful that as I get older my eyes begin to serve me better and I can see and appreciate the wonder and beauty in things that would have previously never captured my notice. Now, as I drive along my country roads it amazes me how many beautiful "weeds" I can spot and appreciate even cruising at 50 MPH.
