FLOWER QUOTE: NO MATTER HOW CHAOTIC IT IS
January 20, 2020
MY TWO CENTS No matter how chaotic it is, wildflowers will still spring up in the middle of nowhere… Life often feels chaotic to me. Sheryl Crow’s quote, though, calms my mind and spirit, knowing that moments and lovely flowers will pop up in the least expected ways. It reminds me that there is so much more to life than getting caught up in the chaos of it. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Sheryl Crow is...

December 30, 2019
MY TWO CENTS The new year stands before us, like a chapter in a book, waiting to be written… The new year is a wonderful time for renewal. How fortunate are we to have a restart button to push and begin again. Happy New Year and here’s to a great 2020! ABOUT THE AUTHOR Melody Beattie (1948) was born in St. Paul, Minnesota. Her father left when she was a toddler. As a child, Beattie wa...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: IT’S NOT ABOUT YOUR PRESENTS
December 09, 2019
MY TWO CENTS It’s not about your presents, but it is about your presence. Therein lies the spirit of the holiday season... How quickly I can get caught up in the gift giving and the holiday season and forget to be here and present. It’s an exciting time of the year, but I don’t want to get lost in the hustle and bustle. I want to be in the moment and be present with those I’m celebrating...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: BE THANKFUL
November 25, 2019
MY TWO CENTS Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough... I think Oprah said it best. Happy Thanksgiving! ABOUT THE AUTHOR Who doesn’t know Oprah Winfrey (b. January 29, 1954) Admittedly, I wasn’t sure what to share about Oprah, as most people know of her and something about her life. This weekend,...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: BEGIN WHAT YOU CAN DO
November 11, 2019
MY TWO CENTS Begin what you can do, or dream you can do. Boldness has genius, strength, and magic in it… I find it hard to go after what I’m dream about. My “monkey” brain works hard to defeat me. So, I appreciate Goethe pushing me along and encouraging me to begin, as beginning is the most important part to fulfill any dream, and often the hardest part. So stay true to what you are passi...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: LET US DECIDE
October 28, 2019
MY TWO CENTS Let us decide on the route that we wish to take to pass our life, and attempt to sow that route with flowers… The first part is the contemplative part; the part that is about choosing what kind of person you want to be and what kind of life you want to live. It takes thought, effort and work. It means not living day to day, but consciously making a choice on who you want to be, so ...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: EVERY FLOWER BLOOMS
October 14, 2019
MY TWO CENTS Every flower blooms at a different pace… What a true and lovely quote. As it is for flower, so it is the same for us. Each of us blooms and grows at different rates. Every part of the process takes effort and work: blooming and growing. With blooming there is the work of gathering the nutrition and the knowledge to bloom, but it makes a fuller life. Then sometimes it’s nice to so...

October 06, 2019
Flowers inspire me every day and below are some blooming inspirations that also inspire me. These thoughtful quotes make me slow down and consider how I can apply them in my life. I hope these quotes fill your day and life with inspiration and encouragement, too. If you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it's your world for a moment… Her quote encapsulates the meaning beh...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: BE HONEST, BE NICE
September 23, 2019
MY TWO CENTS Be honest, be nice, be a flower not a weed… I love how simple and straight forward Aaron Neville’s quote is. Be honest in all you do, be nice to all who you interact with and be a flower: resilient, strong, and radiating joy and beauty. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Aaron Joseph Neville (born January 24, 1941) is an American R&B and soul vocalist and musician. He has had four platinum...
Read MoreFLOWER QUOTE: CREATIVITY LIES IN PARADOX
September 09, 2019
MY TWO CENTS Creativity lies in paradox: serious art is born from serious play… This is something that Julia Cameron writes about in her book, The Artist's Way, and the necessity to play in order to create. Often, I forget to play, but I’m glad to be reminded to take the time to do so along with nurturing myself. Then the real art will come. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Julia Cameron (b. March 4, 194...
