The Gift of a Rose: Learning We are Worthy of Love
“The rose is a rose from the time it is a seed to the time it dies. Within it, at all times, it contains its whole potential. It seems to constantly be in the process of change; yet at each state, at each moment, it is perfectly alright as it is.” Paulo Coelho When I…

Once upon a time there was a little girl. She was absolutely terrified of bad weather—thunder, lightening, and especially tornados. One spring night, tornado warnings flooded the television as a storm raged outside the windows of her home. In the midst of the storm, the little girl fell asleep. When she woke up, she was…
