Be The Weed

The world is very good at telling you who you should be. How you should be. You should be strong, handsome, capable, beautiful. Always be useful. Always do as you are told. Fit in. Be perfect. Be the rose. Don’t get me wrong—roses are beautiful. And there’s nothing like smelling the sweet bloom’s fragrance on a sunny day. But being a rose is hard work. It’s exhausting. What if you tried something new? What if you tried to invite more weeds and wild into your life?

Loved it! Thank you

OMG, I love it!! Yes. My new intention, to be the weed instead of trying to “yank it out” or “poison it.”

I love this idea - being natural wild and free instead of “beautiful” and “perfect” - growing in the hard places, thriving not just surviving! Very empowering! Thank you 🙏🏻 x

I really liked it. I work in agriculture so easily relatable.

This is a surprisingly refreshing perspective. Thank you!

Thanks you Betsy for this inspiration.💚🍀
