Rose Garden …

Life isn't a bed of roses. But when the petals of kindness surround us, it sure feels good. We all need affirmation, praise, someone to tell us we look good, or a word or two leading us in the right direction. Kindness goes a long way doesn't it? Though my Mother would say, "… a bop on the head or two, isn't always bad."

I guess that is the secret of roses…soft petals and thorns in the right places.

One rose petal, after another makes a rose.

We have the gift to love. Everyday there is a path that can lead us to loving one another. A friend said this evening, "Life is everything, all at once."

  1. Gorgeous rose pictures. I was just in my garden today looking to see if there were any roses. I am reeeeallly looking forward to the roses soon, there leaves are becoming just lush.

  2. The wonderful blogger Ellie O’Donnell wrote about playing a game called “roses and thorns” to teach her daughter about how life had good and bad.
    Sadly, Ellie has died of ALS, but her blog, Have Some Decorum, is still online and well worth reading.

  3. I have an antique carved stone plaque that hangs on my back porch that reads “This world that we’re living in is mighty hard to beat, you get a thorn with every rose, but aren’t the roses sweet?”
    Thank you for the beautiful pictures!

  4. Life is what it is..we all have to just keep on…keeping on…
    Sometimes we smell the rose, sometimes we get stuck by the thorn.
