Life In A Rose Perspective
Here is a photo I took of flowers from my daughter’s wedding recently:
Luke 12:27- Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
Julie had asked me to hold them for a second while she attended to something else. As I held the roses and turned them in the light, I was again amazed at the complex forms of curves and circles that make rose petals. And with a slight breeze their fragrance seemed to stream from each flower.
Each gentle swirl in the petals represent a turn in our lives, some into darker shades, and some reflecting the sunlight. Like life itself, the rose is appreciated best when you try to see it as a whole; light and dark shades, petals away from, and toward the light- all working to make something unique and wonderful in both its simplicity in design, and complexity in execution.
Hal had fun with you. I appreciate your depth, insight, and sensitivity. Such qualities in no way subtract man points, they add to your hot points. Something happens to a man’s perspective on life when his daughter marries. I enjoy your site.
Though I have the same opinions with you, however, I am always not good at expressing my ideas. You are truly great!
