The Rose That Helped me Smell the Flowers

A Rose sprung up at my workplace who was quite nice.  Ironically, the first thing I felt was the thorn.  Ouch! That hurt. This Rose must've thought me quite nasty as I quickly dropped her to the floor.  However, a funny thing came about.  When she hit the floor she looked up at me and smiled.  Soon,  I was smiling back.  And then as I worked with her I developed a relationship with this flower.  This Rose found out more about me and began reflecting back to me parts of myself, good stuff I did not realize or thought wrong to advertise.  This Rose is part of the reason I also blossomed and became a flower.  I became a Violet.  

As a Violet, I attracted the bees just like she did, and one day a bee picked me up and swept me away where I landed in another state.  The Rose tried to keep in touch but the violet was preoccupied w her new life.  One day I called and didnt get a response. I tried to find her in my facebook friends but alas she was no longer there.  The worst part is this Violet could probably find her if she remembered her last name.  And so she learned sometimes last names are important too.

And so Rose of Walgreens in Eagle Rock, this blog is for you and I hope and pray you find this when you need it.

I dont know where you are, but you are special--God has used you to bless me as I pray I am passing blessings along to others.
