LILY PADS



"You only see the top of a lily, but if you pull the lily pad out of the water, it has roots and tangled weeds and all the stuff that comes with it."

  2. Hello Denise,
    Oh how true, when young we had a reasonable sized pond in the garden with Lily pads, a pleasant reminder, thank you.
    Best wishes ,

    1. Life is a roller coaster, not a boring old merry-go-round. Would you like to ride a roller coaster or a boring old merry-go-round, never going anywhere? I saw that somewhere also. Saw that years ago and it has stuck with me, and I still wonder about the answer :)
