Bloom

"Bloom 

where 

you

are 

planted."

This truth has really spoken to me lately.  There is something so heroic and brave about the idea of someone making the most of where they find themselves in life. 

To me that is the definition of a hero: someone that finds their life to be difficult or to have circumstances happen to them that they wouldn't have chosen, and yet they make the best of it.

The person that chooses joy, faith and hope in the midst of a storm is a HERO.

Every single human has difficulties in their life. Each of us are made to face things in life that we don't want to. Choosing to press on, bloom wherever you find yourself and thriving in the midst of a storm, those are the people that make a difference in the lives of others and those are the people that have joy.

Like the flowers we see all around us right now in Spring, just bloom and bless those around you.
