Sunflowers are one of my favorite flowers. But not in a vase or brought indoors. Gazing at a happy field of sunflowers evokes a profound sense of freedom and wildness in me, the unrestrained joy of nature. It lifts my spirits, brings me into the moment, inspires courage, passion, purpose. But not in a vase. In a vase, it feels like a wild bird in a cage. That is not where it's meant to be, to live, to be enjoyed. In the field it's a reminder of the joy and freedom that can be found in the simplest of things, a celebration of life in its purest form.
