I get inspiration from any source I can. Today it was my very persistent petunias in the window box of our home in Ozark, MO. I planted these flowers back in the spring. They have survived summer drought, and now several frosts and a hard freeze. They are a little worn, and somewhat ragged around the edges. I can somewhat identify with that. But there they are, still “hanging in there”, keeping on doing their job of making our lives brighter. I trust I will be able to do the same to those around me.
