Lessons in a Lenten Rose

Today I rejoice in the new yet also see the beauty of brown.

These leaves easily discarded as ugly have offered shelter this past cold month for young lenten rose blossoms waiting to rise and experience life.



In this plant labeled unattractive by some, I see rising exuberance and sheltering wisdom.  I am reminded of old souls who have protected things until this time, for the young souls coming in.


This morning's lesson grows in the lenten rose, the perfect offering of balance and timing in the ongoing dance between old and new, death and birth, age and youth, Souls and Earth.

What lessons await you outside?
