Two years ago, I wrote about the late-blooming sunflower that shone brighter than all the others. [That story here]
Today, I share with you a third generation sunflower whose wait has been just as worth it. This season has brought intense storms and blistering heat and yet, here she is, a towering queen. The story is the same, so please go back and read the first. The moral is the same: that we all move at our own pace…we all grow at different speeds, face different obstacles, and can defy all the odds (even when they’re stacked against us) … sometimes. But sometimes not. And that’s just truth. So we grow our best. Season after season, all we can do is grow our best.
Sunflower’s Story 2
your shares are uplifting and poetic and encouraging and welcome. Continue to grow your best. This post reminds me of the facebook entry i saw– When one door closes, open it. That’s how doors work…
Thank you so much. All we can do is our best, right? And OUR OWN best. Not someone else’s best. It’s a beautiful thing.
I love this, Jess! Very inspiring. (Staci Wilson, via WiH)
