The Heart of a Dandelion

Blue Collar Executive

Oct 16 2023 • 8 mins

Have you ever wondered why a dandelion is considered an annoyance to a well kept lawn?  They are the brightest spot of a yard, but it doesn't fit in with the million blades of grass so we consider them a nuisance and try to eliminate them everytime they pop up.  Many people do the same thing in society and criticize anyone who doesn't fit the mold or goes outside of the lines.  We expect everyone to fit in as blades of grass, but beneath the curtain we are all as unique as a dandelion.

“Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.”

Margaret Mead
