Is there anything more lovely in nature than the explosion of grace and color that is the flower? It is small wonder that humans have been using flowers to convey emotions and as decoration for thousands of years. Studies have even shown that looking at flowers, and being surrounded by them, has a positive effect on our overall well-being, and I don't doubt it. So take a few moments, breath in, breath out, and enjoy the simple beauty of these gorgeous gifts of nature.
