============================
Earlier in the month we had the word “flourish” which is often used to describe flowers, and now today, “blossom” which is most commonly used to describe flowers, too. I think there is a theme here, right? The lifetime of a flower is quite similar to the lifetime of a human I guess! Luckily as humans we have a lot more time to blossom than a flower does!
One of the most famous quotes about blossoming is by author, Anais Nin.
“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” This is actually a difficult quote to understand. If you search Google for the meaning of this quote, you’ll find lots of different answers! I think it means that personal growth is hard and sometimes painful, but not growing is more painful… What do you think it means?
