On Evolving into Completeness


 “The whole point of being alive is to evolve into the complete person 
you were intended to be.” 
--Oprah Winfrey

Life lessons learned from gardening seem to be a common theme for me; at least during the “bloom” seasons.  Featured above, are a few shots of lovely purple coneflowers from my backyard flower garden.  Notice the amazing metamorphosis between the first and last shot (each photo was taken only days apart).

I firmly believe that growth and change are natural (Yup, I learned this from my flowers!).  As a result, I proclaim Ms. Winfrey as right—evolving into the complete person you were intended to be—it is, indeed, the whole point of being alive!  Personal growth and evolution...they are both a constant and a birthright; things to claim and cherish.

Have a wonderful day, T.
