In the desert there is life. Protected, hidden, under the surface. Wait for a rain, and force your display of life. Are you a white mini tree of life in the desert? You look dried out and your skin is brittle to the touch. Inhospitable to outsiders. But the hospitality within you is immense, as big in potential as the desert sky. Clear and full of purpose. You have the ability to balance the extremes of heat and cold, sun and wind, and to thrive!

Please come back tomorrow for a new “Weed Image of the Day” and let me know which ones you like.
We and our weeds are so much more than what we first appear to be.
I am inspired by things that grow in the ground and blow in the wind. I like to play in the dirt, especially when planting something, and can talk to trees. I like to look closely at things that at first seem small, insignificant, dried out, or contrary. Weeds may not welcome me with swollen blossoms, but the visual treasure they offer up, are well worth a look. Do you agree? I hope that these images of the oft-overlooked pest of our gardens and yards may give to you some delight, hope, or a new thought to make your daily journey just a little bit more inspired.
