Curiosity : Growing Flowers, Indulging in Beauty

I started growing flowers en mass a couple years ago.

Each year gets a little better as my skill and attention improves.

They give me endless hours of peaceful work. I do some of my best thinking while working outside.

Lastly, I grow flowers because they are extravagant, indulgent, beauty for it's very own sake.

We have enough utility in our lives, we're accountable for a lot, we're measured on almost everything we do.

Flowers remind me that beauty is abundant and free and unmeasurable.

It's not all vases and soft-focus photos over here. It's also dirty and messy, and my dog is always in the way.
