Long-Lasting: A Full Month Later

March 13, 2023

Never before have my daffodils last so long.
A month later, and the flower bed is still in bloom!

Even so, I know they can't last forever. My friend Beata's Easter meditation, comparing life to a floating soap bubble, applies also to the delicate springtime bulbs:
"Life is so fragile - bańka mydlana - like a soap bubble. We are mesmerized by its lightness, shine and flow - its flowing existence in our proximal space; but then it is nothing, nonexistent, nonessential in a matter of one second. The space has been emptied for other textures, substances and objects."
