There are always flowers for those who want to see them. ~ Henri Matisse

We see what we want to see, whether it's true or not. If we want to see something...in us, in those we love, in a situation...we can celebrate it if it is there and delude ourselves into seeing it if it's not there. Some may think that's a bad thing but look at what we can "get through" with that skill. Focus on the good. Eventually the flowers come out of the dirt and bloom and we were proven right.

Have a good day, buddies.
