stopping to smell the flowers

There is an ease with flowers, which came as a welcome contrast to me in my early twenties amidst the busyness and pressure of life. The designs that captured my soul the most in those first years of discovery were the ones that embraced imperfection and drew on the seasonal changes in flowers and trees that stop us in our tracks on the street. It was their peaceful purpose - the reassurance of a casual miracle - that I felt instantly connected to. 

Learning to capture that feeling and translate it through my own work, turns out, is an eternal process, which I feel compelled to attempt to master. But along the path so far, I have stumbled upon some unexpected treasures. I found a source for personal growth and freedom in entrepreneurship, a community of like-minded dream chasers, and a platform to connect with others who share a similar passion, all of which have been reason enough to never look back.

While it's good to have a goal or a dream to reach for, there is something to be said about the little surprises that meet us along the way. You might find sometimes they hold even more value than the thing you're chasing.
