Sometimes I just see something and think "that is a blog post from God"....so today I was spraying some weeds in the yard. We have a lot of the purple flower we call "thrift". I love it because my sweet Mamaw had it at her house when I was a kid. Today, it was sitting there looking pretty except for this one weed sticking out of the middle of it. It was higher than the thrift so you couldn't miss it.
I think there is a lesson in it for me. Don't let one negative thing, one stressful event or stressful situation, ruin your vision of beauty. Sometimes, I get so overwhelmed by one part of life that I let it block everything else. I am usually reminded as I have been today, that it will pass and I am so blessed.
One weed shouldn't block our view of the purple flowers. We all have weeds to pull so we can see the beauty.

Love..Becky
Thank you Becky! Love you!
So true...and somehow that silly yellow dandelion makes the purple flowers look happier!
Debbie, I always love your comments, they are so happy! Love you!
Christy, you are so insightful. You see beauty in everything and find an important lesson in everything. I'm glad that you can so I can learn from you cuz I sure never realize such great life lessons from looking at a weed in a flower patch!!!
Love you!
Don't worry, I wasn't like thi at your age. I was in to trying to save animals when I was your age. God knows how to slow me down with a vision, or a word. Now, I just sit back and watch!
Thanks everyone. Love you all!
