stopping to smell the flowers

There is an ease with flowers, which came as a welcome respite to me  amidst the busyness and pressure of life in my early twenties. 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 reassurance that I felt instantly connected to. They were like casual little miracles saying, "You don't have to try so hard. You can just simply be."

Learning to capture that feeling and translate it through my own work, turns out, is a process of freeing oneself, which has become an ever-unfolding journey. 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.
