Yesterday I posted about the sudden disappearance of our spring weather. The poor daffodils were weighed down with wet snow.
In the afternoon the snow had gone but several of the daffodils’ stems had broken. I went out and cut them off short , put them in a small mug with water. Some were still bent over and petals wilted. But…an hour later… look…
Some of the petals have signs of frost bite but look how well they recovered. I think there is something we can learn from this. Sometimes life just gets us down and nothing is going right. Life can be so unfair. But if we can pause and refresh then we can recover well . It does not matter how we refresh, as we all have different ways of doing that. Taking a break, getting in touch with friends or family, meditation, prayer, and for me going for a ride on my horse. This is how we can be like the daffodils and recover.
