family growth resilience

'You invest to cultivate, work to nurture before you enjoy the blossoms.'

The idea of a showy bouquet of delphiniums proves to be far more than just a growing challenge, but rather a challenge to stay true to oneself, all the while carrying that tapestry of life and experience with that head held high.

Carola Aguillard's internship at a fashion boutique is about to end. Unsure and lacking direction in life she is suddenly whisked into her Auntie's craze of growing billowy Delphiniums in the midst of Paris' unforgiving summers.

However with a little perseverance not only do they produce the finest cultures of this fussy plant.

But they also discover the power of family and faith to overcome hardships.

From France to America: a Journey of Strength by Mlissa534070

Hi, my name is Melissa. I've never considered myself a strong person, but I didn't realize that at the time. I always struggled to keep a job, never really understanding why happiness seemed so elusive. I thought I was content, unaware that I was, in fact, struggling. I know what you might be thinking, but please, keep reading. Something happened to me during my first year of working at 16 that changed my life forever. It hurt me in ways I couldn't fully comprehend, and while that pain has lessened over time, it shaped the person I've become-someone stronger than I ever imagined I could be. What I thought would destroy me instead pushed me to move to another country, a place where I barely knew the language. At just 24 years old, despite my parents' concerns and their insistence that I shouldn't go alone, I embarked on this journey by myself. Up until then, I had often hidden behind my parents, relying on them to face the world for me. But the events of my past forced me to confront life head-on. I didn't realize it at the time, but I was hiding from the world, keeping my head down, and avoiding the challenges that came my way. But now, I'm ready to share my story, lift my head, and face the world with courage. It's been a journey full of unexpected twists, and I promise you-it's going to get interesting.

THE GOOD OVEN *Wattpad Featured* (aka 'Re Ply') by RosyCarmelina

#6 Spiritual. Wattpad Featured. The battle for life and the winning of love, from World War 1 to the Millennium. A collection of (very) short real life stories and one or two poems. 'Waiting for Fred Astaire,' 'No Child of Mine,' and other memories were given to me by wonderful women and men who taught me everything that matters to me now. They told and retold, telling without saying, until I began to understand. The lesson never ends. I remember, and loving them, learn still. Thank you so much for reading. Your comments and thoughts are so welcome and such a great help. As I got older I simply thought these memories would die with me. I can't believe they are now being read in over 90 countries! It is really amazing. Thank you again :))) Keep in touch. Follow for more news and stories. I'll put the kettle on. Come back soon:) © @RosyCarmelina all rights reserved. I found the beautiful cover picture on the wiki creative commons page which feels just like the right mood for the love that cooks these stories.

This fairy tale retelling, set in Medieval France, is the beginning of a gripping four-part saga in which love and self-liberation are more powerful than any prison of sand or spell or stone.
