Gerbera Daisies on a San Francisco Wall (Sundays In My City)
Gerbera daisies are my favorite flowers. If you ever want to give me flowers, don’t bother with roses; go for the gerbera daisies. I love that such a big beautiful bloom looks out at the world joyfully on a seemingly delicate stem. Its unabashed beauty magnificently displayed is like a dare to own your own […]
Believe in the Possibility of the Impossible (Wednesday Wishes)

Join me in making wishes and manifesting abundance in […]
