Are You Bouquet?

April 28, 2020

Dear Diary,



Lately with everything happening in the world, I feel inclined to ask those I interact with in my life, “Are you bouquet?” In my mind, I find myself pondering this concern for humanity a little more than normal. I hope people are bouquet. I mean “okay” (or at least that much).

My love and I were out on a stroll through the town and came across these vibrant blossoms. We stopped to stare at their beauty. they were so pretty, he was brave enough to pick me a bouquet of rhododendron flowers. These made my day.


There’s no underestimating the power behind a simple gesture, to check on someone and see if they’re okay. For everyone we meet is fighting a harder battle that we know nothing about. Maybe someone needed to hear it and maybe they didn’t, but to all, I hope this message is received kindly. I hope people are okay, that they are receiving a bouquet, that in dark times they find strength in their roots or plant new seeds to grow. Eventually, maybe they’ll be budding again, blossoming, and soon to be flourishing as we transgress from this phase in our lives to the next.
