Everyone blooms in it's own time....

 I loved this flower.....

not open yet,

but you can imagine how it will be.....

especially since there was another one

that showed us how it could be

Isn't this what we do?

Imagine a future because we think we know the outcome?

Flower buds are a sign of promise for me,

a promise of something new, 

something amazing.

And then.....

Instead of blooming it died....

'What did I do wrong?!?'

I gave it what it needed....I thought....

and it only could show us 'a promise'

not the end result I expected/wanted to.....

I realised that this is what sometimes happens

with our talents, our expectations,

and also with the talents of our kids or loved ones....

We see the beauty, only.....

sometimes it dies before it blooms....

Was it because it was not mend to be,

or was it because it was not what 

we/they really wanted,

but what was expected from them/us...

 

While working in the garden,

a stem with leaves and a but snapped.....

It's natural habitat was gone.....

We put it in water and

...we have a beautiful white tulip in the house.

The bulb is still in the garden: next year it will bloom again,

for now we enjoy it in the house....

Do you recognize this with your self, your loved ones, 

or your children?

Do you need to go somewhere else,

do something else to survive to bloom

and is this what your loved ones/kids

need sometimes as well?

Is it someone's fault? 

Did someone something wrong?

No.....

I did everything I could to make the flower bloom,

only.....it didn't work....

Perhaps it needed something that I didn't know,

perhaps it was not mend to bloom,

I don't know,

I only know that I should accept what is.....

That I still remember how it felt

to see the promise in that beautiful bud.

It is a happy feeling :-)

I saw the documentary 'Without a coat' from Snelle on Netflix.

A story about a rapper, born with a cleft palate,

not realising this till he was older.

Was bullied has good friends and a goal.

Now he is successful, works with his friends

and realises that 'his wound' is following him...

In the documentary he try's to avoid it,

now he has taken time of.....

time for him....

Great to watch

to see how Saturn and Uranus work....

How strong a inside goal works....

How challenging it is to be YOU in a society

and even if you can do this and be successful,

if there is still some hurt.....

you NEED to deal with it.....
