cornflower in bloom

A superb Victoria Day and I caught a picture of this bloom just before the evening's fireworks began. As I looked at the photo, I realized how like the fireworks, the flower blooms reach out beyond the centre. Reaching out from our hearts. Grasping into the unknown. Isn't that what faith calls us to do? Aren't we called to trust and have faith? Aren't we called to reach out to others, just as we have been blessed? Isn't that how life becomes vibrant? By reaching out beyond ourselves.
