Flowers seem to be hiding from the industrial chaos but refusing to wilt instead, their vibrancy is so much brighter and they add such a stark contrast to the almost monochrome monotony of their surroundings… we could take lessons on not allowing our situation or surroundings to make us shrink, shirk, or wilt ourselves… if nothing else, appreciate the points of brightness, even if everyone else seems blinded by apathy.

“HUMAN BEINGS MAKE LIFE SO INTERESTING. DO YOU KNOW, THAT IN A UNIVERSE SO FULL OF WONDERS, THEY HAVE MANAGED TO INVENT BOREDOM.” ~ Death (Terry Pratchett)
