Join us on a journey of 30 photos of beautiful flowers combined with inspirational quotes. Exhale and marvel in the wonder of the world around you; follow along as a Most Privileged tourist in this amazing world we inhabit. Reviewing these photos has made me once again humbled by the nature around me. Hope they make you happy too.
For the month of May in 2022, I posted photos of wildflowers and a quote or observation to celebrate Spring and the color and joy flowers bring to our lives. Though I love all flowers, wildflowers were my choice as they often bloom in the most beautiful/unusual places, they need not be tended and they often grow close to other types of wildflower providing our eyes with a natural bouquet.

Poppies are the symbols of remembrance; they line our roads and battlefields. But let them not only be symbols of remembrance, but vibrant bright red beacons of the strength, resilience and determination of those of us left behind. - Author

I chose this one as the tulips here are growing wild. Rogue wildflowers and they are doing amazing just like Dolly Parton sings in her song.
