I’m not sure why the cashier at Trader Joe’s wanted to know, but I’m glad he asked in front of a crowd:
“These flowers are BEAUTIFUL! Are they for you or a friend?”
“ME!” I announced, happy to share a bit of personal philosophy. “I buy some every week.”
Admittedly, there are exceptions. There are some weeks in summer – not arrived yet – when I’ve actually grown some worth cutting and putting inside.
But for years I’ve splurged on a bouquet and never been sorry. The color, the symmetry of the petals are nature’s reminders that beauty and balance are possible.

I love buying flowers for myself. It makes me feel wonderful. Gerbera daisies are my favorite. Thank you for writing this so I could admit. it. 🙂
