As I look around at the flowers in full bloom around me, I find comfort in knowing that nature works in balance, that its energy gives me life and helps me to learn lessons that you cannot learn from people.

I am learning to be more aware not only of myself but my surroundings as well.

I am learning to appreciate the bloom that takes months and only last for a week.

I am learning to enjoy the time it takes to grow.

I am learning to celebrate the gushes of air and drops of rain that are representations of the simplicity it takes to be grateful.

I am learning.

And that is the most important part.
