Two years ago I planted four packages of bluebonnet seeds in a flower bed in my back yard. You have to plant them in October, you see, for them to sprout in the spring. So. . that year, the bluebonnets bloomed and looked wonderful. Last year - nary a one. I hadn't had time to re-sow the seeds that October, and so I figured the bluebonnet days of my flowerbed were over. Fast forward to two weeks ago. I'm weeding this self-same flower bed and. . there are four crazy bluebonnets! They'd germinated and re-sprouted, without any help from anybody. Just looking at them produces a grin. Silly flowers - don't you know you're not supposed to be there? But they are - and they're beautiful!

Life would be so much easier if we could be like the flowers.
