Enlightenment and Resurrection

 

 

     The water lily is said to be symbolic of enlightenment and resurrection. It is rooted deep below the surface of a hidden, mysterious realm. It sends out beautiful blooms which reach beyond the water’s surface into the light. Upon nightfall, it will close up but come the morning sun, it will reopen in full glory.

     I recently received this gorgeous water lily plant as a Mother’s Day gift from my husband. We went on a little adventure to find it and I got to choose the one I wanted to bring home to my little pond.

     Its glowing beauty is a reminder of hope for me. I hope you enjoy it, too!

  1. This is the perfect reminder that there is always hope. Even when you feel submerged in a watery darkness, you just need to look up and find the sun. Keep hope alive.
