Blossoming

Blossoming doesn't always look like you think it will.

This loosely drawn flower certainly didn't end up looking like much of a flower. It wasn't what I pictured when I started at all. But then, when we blossom, it doesn't always work out the way we imagined. When the bud is tight, you can't see how it will turn out. Sometimes you can't even see any of the colour for a while.

One of the fun things about living in a different country is watching all the seasons and seeing the different flowers and fruits arriving. Australia has some weird and wonderful flora (and fauna) and the blossom certainly doesn't always look the way you expect.

But it's still blossoming.

So let go of expectations and just face into the sun and let yourself bloom.
