lotus flowers launch themselves skywards
My interpretation of the challenge is very home-based, these grow on the dam beside my house, but each year I delight in their energy and tall upward reaching stems, their huge red blooms, and magnificent pods.
Take care today what you launch with your thoughts: We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far. Swami Vivekananda
