Life Lessons from Flowers

A few days ago, I shared the life lessons we can learn from flowers with my Instagram family, so I thought I should share them here too. I hope you like it.

Flowers are the most beautiful creation of nature. A flower stands for its fragility and its ability to beautify the surroundings. It believes in giving all the best things it has — fragrance, petals, seeds.

🌻 Spread Joy 🌻

“Happiness held is the seed; Happiness shared is the flower” – John Harrigan

The first lesson that we can learn from flowers is to spread joy wherever we go. 

Despite being delicate and fragile, flowers succeed to find precious place in our hearts. Their fragrance leaves its stimulus on us for the whole day. Flowers teaches us selflessness and compassion. It’s the best example of the purest form of love.

The greatest gift we can ever give to somebody is joy and happiness. We feel pleased to be the reason for the smile on other people’s faces. There is joy in the act of giving when done with pure motives. That’s what a flower teaches us, to spread love and compassion without expecting or demanding anything in return. 

Give a little charity, help someone, feed a person who’s hungry — all this without seeking a reward or without expecting anything from them in return.

🌻 Bloom Anywhere 🌻

“Flowers don’t worry about how they’re going to bloom. They just open up and turn toward the light and that makes them beautiful”. – Jim Carrey

The second important life lesson that we learn from flowers is to bloom anywhere, whatever maybe the situation.

Flowers bloom anywhere on the earth – plain soil, rocks or garden. They spread their beauty no matter where they are grown. Flowers struggle through dry, rain, hot or cold temperatures and yet survive.

They have a natural power to adjust themselves as per the environment around them. We are also similar in that way. We are born anywhere on the earth and have our own struggles & difficulties. 

Yes, a positive environment and proper nurturing accelerates the growth of flowers, but the lack of it doesn’t stop them from growing altogether.

Just like flowers bloom anywhere, humans should also learn to bloom in any condition and try to adjust themselves according to the environmental changes around them.
