the plant that wasn't seen

Last year I had planted a few gladiolus bulbs and only got one to bloom.

We got in the car one day and I looked where there were a bunch of weeds. In the midst of those weeds was a yellow flower. I didn't think much of it. Upon arriving back home I went over to investigate the yellow bloom. It was the most beautiful flower I had ever seen. It was laying on the ground, with weeds all around. I cut the flower and brought it into the house and snapped a pic. It's one of my favorites.

When I was early on in my SZA career, I was the flower that no one could see. I was amongst some people that were weeds. They wanted to occupy all the good parts and choke me out.

There were some amazing people that saw through the weeds and found me. They nutured and took care of me. I am forever grateful.

We all are flowers in the weeds.

It's like seeing the forest through the trees.

If you haven't been found, shine your light and be a flower in the weeds.

Live, love, laugh, learn, listen,

Dave
