A Gift for You - A Flower and A Poem

 


 I adore hydrangeas and roses together. The hydrangeas are finally beginning to show their color in the garden this week.
 
“Love recognizes no barriers.
It jumps hurdles,
leaps fences, penetrates
walls to arrive at its
destination full of hope.”
 
 ~Maya Angelou
 

This quote is what I must pay attention to right now.
Never give up hope, speak your voice, and vote like your life depends on it.
This comment is in response to what is happening in the world on so many avenues from the control one country tries to bare down on another, to men that fear losing control so put restrictions on others, and to the lack of love for one another.



Let's show a little love to one another
and hope for a better world.
Let's leap fences with our arms wide open.
Welcome, dear friends, to a new day, a new world.
Envision love surrounding the world with hope and love.

It's true that the world seems particularly dark these days when one looks at politics and the ways of men who care not for others in the ways they should. Love for others is so needed, and means so much, even in the little ways we can all show it.

These are special words on here today, Marilyn. And those roses, oh my, the photos look soft and pretty. Do you know Maya Angelou is my favorite? I just love her quotes.

I hope you have a very nice Summer week, Marilyn. Try to stay cool. I hear so many people are suffering from the heat.
