Commonplace Journal - Make a Wish



Childhood dreams!  The wish upon a dandelion - but it is really that pause that matters.  The slow to bend down and pick up the magical fluff and then think for a moment of that dream to be fulfilled.  We know dandelions don't have powers, but it's the sweet child-like innocence that teaches us to see beauty in the little things around us - even the common weed.

And the dandelion does not stop growing,
because it is told it is a weed.

The dandelion does not care what others see.

It says, "One day, they'll be making
wishes upon me."

We can learn a lot from a dandelion!
