For someone going through a difficult period in their life, the lotus is a symbol of overcoming adversity and hardship, while still keeping one’s spirit intact.
It was believed that the lotus flower offered strength and power.

Life Doesn't Frighten Me
by Maya Angelou
Shadows on the wall
Noises down the hall
Life doesn't frighten me at all
Bad dogs barking loud
Big ghosts in a cloud
Life doesn't frighten me at all
Mean old Mother Goose
Lions on the loose
They don't frighten me at all
Dragons breathing flame
On my counterpane
That doesn't frighten me at all.
I go boo
Make them shoo
I make fun
Way they run
I won't cry
So they fly
I just smile
They go wild
Life doesn't frighten me at all.
Tough guys fight
All alone at night
Life doesn't frighten me at all.
Panthers in the park
Strangers in the dark
No, they don't frighten me at all.
That new classroom where
Boys all pull my hair
(Kissy little girls
With their hair in curls)
They don't frighten me at all.
Don't show me frogs and snakes
And listen for my scream,
If I'm afraid at all
It's only in my dreams.
I've got a magic charm
That I keep up my sleeve
I can walk the ocean floor
And never have to breathe.
Life doesn't frighten me at all
Not at all
Not at all.
Life doesn't frighten me at all.
because light begets light
may it grow within
when shadows are long
comments off for this one
with my gratitude for the quiet company!!

I actually wanted to delete this image, but after cropping it and doing a few edits, I really like it. I hope you like it too!
In a world that often seeks to silence and diminish the voices of women, the product of strong women stands as a bold and unapologetic celebration of their strength, courage, and unwavering determination. It is a powerful reminder that we are all capable of creating a better, more equitable world, one that values and uplifts the contributions of all its members.

It's not about battling the strength of the beast...It's about battling the weakness within yourself.
Nothing symbolizes prairies and grasslands like buffalo (or bison). I hoped we could enjoy a view of these magnificent creatures, the largest mammals in North America, but we had visited areas of the park away from the buffalo herd. Finally, as we were about to exit the national park, we encountered two bulls near the road. This one preferred to roll in the dirt, eat grass, and graze. After viewing him for some time through my telephoto lens he eventually grazed into the position of a silhouette against bright morning sunbeams shining parallel to the valley behind.
From the Grasslands National Park website: "Plains bison were re-introduced to Grasslands National Park in December 2005, after 120 years of absence. Prior to European settlement, the prairies were home to tens of millions of free-roaming bison. Bison were both an ecological and cultural keystone species, shaping the grassland landscape through grazing and sustaining the Indigenous peoples that lived on the land. By the 1880's, the large herds that once roamed the Great Plains were driven to the brink of extinction by overhunting. The long process of re-introducing bison to the Canadian wild can be traced back to a few individuals that were captured and raised domestically across North America. In 2005, after consultation with stakeholders, neighbours and specialists, Grasslands National Park welcomed plains bison back to their home."
