The Importance of Efflorescence

Some people are in your life for a moment.

Others for a season.

Some people are with you for a lifetime.

Have you witnessed the wonder of a flower fully opened?

This unfolding.

This flourishing.

This blossoming.

Beautiful efflorescence.

(I was researching info about roses and discovered this word. Which is absolutely perfect. Let it roll off your tongue. Let it roll around your mind. Efflorescence.)

Hanging out this week with two of mom's lifelong friends.

Efflorescence?

Yep. That pretty much describes it.

I pray

you have moments,

seasons,

a lifetime

of efflorescence.
