This spectacularly big pink dalia kind of symbolizes how I feel today, which just happens to be my birthday.
The miracles and blessings of everyday existence are always all around us. I’m so thankful that I try to continually cultivate awareness of such things. To smell the flowers so to speak.
Sometimes the blessings and miracles, however, are enormous things that are hard to put into images.
Finding out that I do qualify for a refinance of my home, after several years of financial hardship, on the same day that it is announced that my mother’s stage 3B cancer is official in remission is just beyond mere words and images.
But an enormous pink dalia is a hint at the kind of gratitude I feel in my heart today. I imagine from my heart chakra, I am radiating out a thousand petaled bloom of pink light – gratitude, love, safety, peace….
My motto has long been- I am blessed, I am blessed, I am blessed. Today it is more than a motto. It’s like the universe has shouted it out from a megaphone – “In case you weren’t paying attention- YOU ARE BLESSED!”
