Ever feel like the little fella on this peony?
You are the only one working on what seems a HUGE
impossible project?
One that never seems to have an ending in sight.
Some days are so humid you feel sick.
Some days it rains and washes all of the work
you have just done away...or so it seems.
But you keep on shuffling around,
doing your best, cause it is what you gotta do.

One day however,
the sun shines,
the flower bursts into bloom!
Beautiful and awesome and somewhat magical!
You see a bit of what you have accomplished.
It is almost too big for you to comprehend all of it at once!

Now you can rest until the next season of growing.
Enjoy the moments,
as short as they can be.
Because it will storm again,
it will be humid again,
the snows will come for the resting period.
You will begin again!
