I’m up before dawn. When dawn came I saw that my sunflowers produced their first bloom (Here is the photo of that sunflower). I like sunflowers. They’re big, bright, and beautiful I like the way they follow the sun. The sunflower is a wonderful metaphor for me. It challenges me to periodically perform a personal audit to check the direction in which I’m heading. In today’s digital society, it’s easy to get sidetracked from what’s really important. It’s easy to tune into people who talk loudly but speak with empty words. It’s easy to fall into the trap that popularity is equivalent to doing what’s right. Like the sunflower that follows the sun. It is a good idea to see if we are walking toward the light and not wallowing in the darkness.
