Weekly Photo Challenge : Flowers

Life sometimes can be a little busy and I know it’s a bit of a cliché but stopping the smell the flowers is an important part of life. When I took this photo I was walking to my coffee group. I had a strong fast pace, however when I saw this flower it was time to stop, take a shot using my iphone and give it the Instagram treatment.

By stopping it gave me a chance to enjoy the wonder that this little flower has to offer. It gave me an opportunity to be creative and enjoy the moment.

I always say to my self that I’m the tortoise because I don’t do rushing around very well. I’m not one that can juggle everything and I never pretend to. Life is not a rush for me as slow and steady wins the race and I have learnt over the years to not succumb to that competitiveness of life.

I hope you enjoy my flower.
