Yesterday, as I was putting my footwears before boarding the cab for office, I noticed a bloom in one of the dormant plant, or say the one that I know was just a show plant, with great capacity to multiply itself without much care, attention or even lack of space to expand but also purifies air!
To me, it hurts to trim my plants and I like them wild and free but this one I couldn't let break the plastic pot in which it was dwelling so Some years back, with heavy heart I had cleared some of the tiny buds.
Back to today, my heart swelled with pride and joy and when I saw there was a beautiful fountain like flowering on the buds and with water droplets shining like diamonds in the summer morning.
This was a surprise and an awakening for me. Infact many times my limited set of green buddies have given me such surprize where they surpassed their own limitations (one that was in my head for them not a flowering plant) and Bloomed!
Bloomed where they were,
Continued to grow deeply and slowly...at their own pace,
Continued to be what they were, absolutely unapologetically! And did the best they could - Bloom!

In the current phase of my life where I had strong expectations of my growth at work life but the management decided 'No', I was shattered, I felt lifeless and uprooted, I cried and questioned myself, one blow and it hurts all those hurts that I carried, the stress dint do any good either, sleepless nights, throbbing headaches, cough and cold and tears....They all allowed me to survive and in times like this, this magical sight of the snake plant bloom was a beautiful and humble reminder -
Everyone can Bloom!
