Thank you! I added it to my quote list. This time last year I made the conscious decision to stop for every purple flower. It is a practice of joy.

I am wondering if God is always hopeful that we will notice, that one day we’ll suddenly be there, and we’ll know His presence among the purple flowers. xoxo
