Wonderful Lotus … ❀⊱╮

I was just thinking about my love of the Lotus flower  ~ and yes, I’m crazy about Bamboo too  (✿◠‿◠)  and I wanted to share a little about the magnificent Lotus ….

One of the reasons I chose the Lotus as part of my business name is because The Lotus is a very important symbol in many cultures and religions ~ it is seen to represent, beauty, creation and rebirth.

It emerges through muddy ponds to bloom beautifully in the sun ~ standing proud and tall….  So it’s kind of a beautiful symbol of new beginnings and strength…  I like that very much…

It’s edible, and the flowers brewed and used in tea.  Lotus has wonderful curative properties and used in many Asian cultures to treat a huge range of health ailments…

Although the Lotus is rooted in mud, it sits majestically on the surface of the water and the water just rolls off it’s leaves ~ just as I believe we should flow in life…   Grow, blossom and let nothing taint you…
