Turn

A thought for your day, with my good wishes …

Flowers don’t worry about how they’re going to bloom.

They just open up and turn toward the light and that makes them beautiful.

― Jim Carrey

Hello, and a very happy Monday to you! I’ve just returned from Pennsylvania, USA, where I delivered a keynote presentation to a lovely group. After spending time in Villanova, I soaked up some Philadelphia sights and experiences under gorgeous sunny – if cold! – skies.

Here’s to all the spring flowers we’ll soon be enjoying in the northern hemisphere. If, like me, you’re counting the days until spring, check below for my videos of flowers and gardens from a number of countries.

For additional photos and videos of my travels, you’re welcome to join me on Instagram and YouTube – you don’t need your own accounts to access them.
