That was it, no need to climb any higher or contonue exploring the mountain. We found something very special and headed back home.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4637577035521955477.post-69426355377416801842012-07-24T21:42:16.959-07:002012-07-24T21:42:16.959-07:00mmmm that is so beautiful, thanks anonymousmmmm that is so beautiful, thanks anonymousjozienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10212900310477832041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4637577035521955477.post-26571939028105585592012-07-23T23:06:11.885-07:002012-07-23T23:06:11.885-07:00I married a flower, she was a late bloomer.I married a flower, she was a late bloomer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4637577035521955477.post-61237586115198641332012-07-18T10:24:28.736-07:002012-07-18T10:24:28.736-07:00hdt's post is a pretty grim assessment of rela...hdt's post is a pretty grim assessment of relationships. Think he was being provocative. <br /><br />I saw a rare colour variation of a common flower which would be very cool to have in my garden. It would be transformative, atr least to me- something to show people like a rare fossil.<br /><br />Why does that happen- something so commonplace suddenly transformed by a slight colour variation into such an exquisite beauty? <br /><br />Thinking about it brings to mind what creates perfection and what causes contentment.hdtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4637577035521955477.post-41575009868762954842012-07-17T10:14:58.549-07:002012-07-17T10:14:58.549-07:00yes, thank you for your point hdt, perfect.

When they get a little old and start to fade I move on and find someone who is blooming, someone who is reaching out for sunlight- like a vagabond rolling stone I carry on from one relationshp to another, always with a brilliantly coloured flower. <br /><br />Do hope that this changes in old age- would be nice to have someone around for a longer period to help me move those heavy boxes in the attic when I am my late seventies.<br /><br />hdthdtnoreply@blogger.com
