Bloom. "Bloom Where You Are Planted," was a popular phrase when I was a teenager. I'm not exactly sure I caught its true meaning back then, but it sounded really hip. The other day I saw a beautiful sunflower growing out of a crack in the sidewalk. It literally was the only living thing in sight. I couldn't help but be reminded about this old adage. It got me to thinking about how sometimes we don't have complete control over where we are planted; that circumstances might be out of our control. However, it is still possible to find contentment. Don't allow the circumstances of your life to hold you back completely. Allow yourself to bloom.
