Collection: Lotuses
The lotus is well deserved as a beloved symbol with many meanings. It blooms in the most unlikely of places such as the mud of murky river water; a lovely delicate flower tenaciously growing in the muck! I like to think of it as a lesson from what I call God--though you may call it The Universe, Allah, Buddha, or something else--that we can take what we have and beautify it; we can start exactly where we are and go from there, and it is enough! In fact, the contrast of rising from adversity is stunning. It is a marvel to witness. It is glorious!
