We remember and we grieve.

| I believe these blossoms are flowering plum. |
We look at our world and we grieve. So many martyrs. Broken hearts. Oppression and hatred. Disease. A pandemic.

| The almond bush has frilly pink blooms |
But grief and joy are not mutually exclusive. It is possible to experience both. At the same time.

| Daffodils cheerfully welcome spring |
This is Easter. Overwhelming sorrow turns to great joy. "Why do you seek the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen." Luke 24:5-6
 |
| The red bud tree signals a new garden year. |
It occurs to me that in some small way flowers are equally at home with the grieving and the rejoicing. And so among these flower photos I hope you will find my Easter blessing for you: Comfort and joy.

| Bees (do you see it?) love the crabapple tree blossoms. |
