Determination...

...an amazing weed...

My dad noticed it as we walked out of the hospital cafeteria and said..." there is a symbol of the determination to live...the dandelion never gives up trying to live."

It was beautiful growing in a crack among all the bricks.

Brian is my dandelion.

My first thought when seeing this image was... "wow, now that flower has the will and strength to carry on, no matter what the circumstances!" Of course I thought of Brian right away, this is truly a sign for you.

Poor little guy, he's a little out of place.
Very nice pic. I like it!
