about to lose everything

"this too shall pass" my mum says. it's a very mother thing to say, and it is only recently that i began to entirely
believe her. it really does all pass. we are as weak as dandylions but also as resilient as them. we return each year.
i won't pretend to love dandylions, i gain a specific joy out of pulling them and finding i have gotten whole damn
root. but i have to hand it to them....they never say die. and in an open field of unmanicured grass and unmanicured
society...they truely are beautiful.

(thanks mum.)
