My senior year of high school was a particularly rough time for me. College was approaching and I was trying to squeeze the last ounce of motivation I had to finish out high school. I was having trouble holding on. With every day came new challenges, new obstacles, and new worries. It wasn’t until one early morning while lying in bed that I found my motivation for conqueroring every bad issue that plagued my life. This one motivation was pink flowers.
Sitting on my night stand on this particular morning, was a crystal vase containing six of the most beautiful pink flowers that have ever blossomed. With just glance, the brightly colored flowers looked fragile, yet simple. Inside the plant, however, existed an intricate and beautiful design. While gazing at these flowers, I thought about how complex and complicated life is. But just because it is this way does not mean that life can not be something beautiful. In fact, the fights that we face daily and the trails that we overcome are things that make life so delicate, so complicated, and so intricate.
The next time life seems overbearing, focus on the simple things, like pink flowers. This will remind you the beauty of a situation though it looks difficult. Giving yourself this constant reminder and message will help you to keep situations and life in perspective and you might just find that your life is a pink flower pedal.
