"Love is like wildflowers; It's often found in the most unlikely places"   They show up into our lives by accident and stay for a purpose. They represent hope and love which are like stars that shine in the dark. They give peace that which comes from within.. From their lovely petals, the words of Ghandi vibrate: " Be the change you wish to see in this world." They remind us that peace begins and ends with us.
