Resilience is one of the most important skills in life.

We all face difficulties, challenges and setbacks, but resilience is what determines whether we fight through it and grow, or whether cave in and let those challenges defeat us.

Flowers always make people better, happier and more helpful; they are sunshine, food, and medicine to the soul.

It's so curious: we can resist tears and behave very well in the darkest hours. But then someone makes us a friendly sign behind a window, or we notice that a flower that was in bud only yesterday has suddenly blossomed or a letter slips from a drawer... and suddenly we feel frail and sensitive.
