Value your small part
This plant flowers once a year. I provide the proper sunlight, temperature, and water. A pencil thin stem shoots up out of the green leaves and produces twelve magnificent orchid blooms. Nothing for a year, and then suddenly something extraordinary for several months.
The most exquisite creations may come from your tending and not inventing. Value your part in the whole of the creative process — no matter how mundane your contribution. This is my flashback of good for today. Suzy Shepard

The aspen tree is a study in resilience. Thousand year old aspen roots survive forest fires and send up new trunks. When traumatic life experiences burn on the surface, remember the aspen. Your deep roots will survive and grow into a life not wasted - a life worth living. You will have flashbacks of good.
