A beautiful reminder to live life to it's fullest... It was nice to read about a lovely spring flower when we are right in the middle of the cold winter... Very well written, Sara...

A beautifully penned piece Sara, so much meaning portrayed, in the end sometimes all we have left to pass on, are our own lessons in life, cheers David
