Blooming

I am overjoyed that my Violet plant has bloomed again.

I bought this plant in full bloom some time ago and then they blooms faded.

 

I watered and loved the healthy succulent leaves…but…

I had a lack of trust that those beautiful blooms would arrive again.

 

At the first sight of a bud I was giddy with anticipation.

 

I still had doubts because the buds look so wound tight and small that it didn’t make sense how that could bloom into this…but alas, one by one they are opening to this rich royal purple and I am in love and I am in awe and…

 

I am a little bit disappointed in myself for doubting that they would come.

 

Which leads me to the question, what else am I watering and caring for in doubt versus trust?  What seeds of opportunity have I planted and then left because of doubt or fear.

 

These fresh new Violet blooms are my invitation to remember to care for my desires in a place of trust and anticipation.
