Morning glories are usually blue, pink, or purple,with white streaks. The white ones have dark purple streaks. I was intrigued when I found this beauty peeking out behind the vines. I had to grab my camera and record this visually stunning, glorious bloom. The color palette is so rare. I think the camaraderie of blogging is unique like this flower. Beautiful souls sharing their intimate stories of life, their passions, their dreams and fears. We all are peering and peeking at a piece of the each others' soul, as we follow or find blogs. It is a true gift, to share such deep, private thoughts and be exposed. In doing so, we are able to stand taller, walk differently. Our vines are deeply connected to who we are; We still have the power n' potential to bloom into our own selves and share our vision and beauty with the world~ I think if you are on the fence about blogging, you need to jump off and give it a try! It might just change your life; It has mine~
How has your blog affected your life?!

My blog has opened up a world of interesting people I would never have found at the bus stop :)
I planted their cousin, Moon flowers-gorgeous illuminated white, huge blooms. They only opened when it was dark. I have never seen anything like it. Thank you! I googled it and can't find anything~
Sherry-Thank you; I still can't remember how I found you, but I think it was meant to be ;-D
She-I am grateful, your words are so vivid and beautiful, like a painting of one's soul~
Kelley-Thank you, I had to share, never seen anything like it~
Abby-Thank you; I was stunned when I went closer and saw the colors. It was hiding behind heart shaped leaves, peering out! Poetry in nature~
Alex-YOU make me smile~
Carrie-Thank you; It was such a surprise to see it. It looks like Mother Nature painted her petals~
Carolyn-I love that you plant both day n' night flowers! Moonflowers are fun~ It has opened a window to so many unique souls! Thank you for sharing your thoughts~
My blog has affected me in such profound ways. It gave my shy, scared, timid self a voice. I share so much of myself that years ago I would have been terrified to share. It allowed me to open up, be vulnerable and put myself out there. In doing this it gave me the opportunity to connect with others. Feel the support of a community. And meet wonderful, amazing, loving individuals like yourself.
blogging is an incredible web. weaved together by each of our stories. so uniquely different. yet with each story told we know and feel deeply that we are not alone. that is a gift.
And your words are as beautiful as the flower. It was a happy day when I found you, and all the other gorgeous souls I am now proud to call my friends.
Great post, Ellie :)

"Beautiful souls sharing their intimate stories of life, their passions, their dreams and fears. We all are peering and peeking at a piece of the each others' soul, as we follow or find blogs. It is a true gift,...". I agree with you totally. I have been thinking these very same thoughts the last several days. Well said Ella.
