is like a brilliant field of new spring flowers,
filled with creative, talented, intelligent people, with open, searching minds, who are kind and supportive, rooting for each other.
A field chock full of productive people who use their unique talents in individual ways to contribute, to try and make a better world.
A community that spans countries, continents, religions and viewpoints, composed of individuals adding their light to an often dark world.
You are a blessing everyday to so many, including me. It was time to pause, and express my gratitude for being part of you.
Non-bloggers may not understand the depth of our individual and community connection. Hopefully, they might start a blog and find out for themselves, if not, it is their loss.
I picked these photos and flowers in honor of you, and our community.
Thank you for being you! Cheers to you and long may you blog~

Beautiful flowers and sentiment. I love pictures of flowers because I am allergic to the real ones and this way I can enjoy them without sneezing! I just found your blog tonight and am looking forward to following you.

I think I could have set up a tent in the middle of your first photo and stayed there for as long as the colors would have me. This shot would look great hanging up in my place, especially after the greyish winter experienced. Cheers to a great spring.
