| Hellebore or Christmas Rose |
One aspect the 2020 year has taught us, is that we do not know what we even had. I am talking about simple things. Like a hug. Mobility. Shared feasts.
I am trying to apply this principle of simplicity today to what I do have. People who love and care. A setting of natural beauty with clean water. A toasted turkey sandwich with sprouts. The flower I found blooming in the garden.
If I could, I would plant Hellebores or Christmas Roses everywhere as a sign of hope and new beginnings. May their beauty bloom for us all.
