Sunflowers. They are those cheerful, bright flowers with personality. In the journey of life, you should do as the sunflower. Sunflowers recieve their name because they love the sun; they always face the sun. In the morning, even before the sun is completely up, you will find that these flowers face to the east because this is the direction of the rising sun. As the sun marches across the sky, sunflowers will dance with it and turn to face it. They are truly the sun's flowers. When the sun sets and the moon takes its place, sunflowers face west, always following the sun's rays until they are vanished below the horizon.
We should all take note and do what sunflowers do.....we should follow the metaphorical sun. Choose to focus on the sunny parts of life...the good times, the laughs, the little things that knit into everlasting memories. Forget about what seems like the dark, gray filled days, because nothing can keep the sun from shining. Even on cloudy days, the sky is bright because of the sun behind the clouds. Without rainy days, growth would be impossible. Just remember though, that sunflowers live for the sun. Sure they can withstand storms and thrive from plentiful rainfall, but that is not the reason for which they are named sunflowers. They are named for what they do and what they love. Let your life reflect this also.....live for the moments you can't put into words....moments that are comparable to following the sun.
