“The splendor of the rose and the whiteness of the lily


do not rob the little violet of its scent nor the daisy of its simple charm. I realized that if every tiny flower wanted to be a rose, spring would lose its loveliness and there would be no wild flowers to make the meadows gay.” -St. Therese of Lisieux

For Reflection:
Is there someone of whom I am envious or jealous? To what extent does this quote help me praise God for his/her gift? What gift do I have that makes me a flower in the garden of life?
