When Stars Align
When stars align, the universe reveals its plan
A moment of great change, where dreams unfold by hand
The skies, a canvas, painted with vibrant light
A call to action, to make our spirits take flight
The stars, a guide, that shows us our true way
To rise above the noise, and seize the day
To let our passions shine, and make our hearts sing
And in the celestial rhythm, find our soul's true wing
When stars align, we're reminded of our might
To shape our destiny, and make our dreams take flight
We're called to be the change, we wish to see in the world
To spread love, hope, and joy, like a celestial unfurl
When stars align, our potential is set free
And we become the masters, of our destiny.

The Bouquet of Flowers
I can hear various theme songs running through my mind as I consider the importance or nonimportance of a bouquet of flowers. Songs like "You Don't Bring me Flowers" where Neil Diamond and Barbra Striesand sing about a once passionate romance dead like flowers a week after they are delivered. Or the song "Flowers" by Miley Cyrus (which won a Grammy) which had me feeling empowered, listening in my car instead of embracing the depression that follows loneliness or rejection. Or even the song by Bruno Mars "When I Was Your Man" where he admits that he should have bought his ex flowers instead of living an episode of "Turn of the Screw". Maybe if his English teacher had introduced him to Henry James, Bruno wouldn't have sung about his regrets. I'm sure there are lots of songs that mention flowers or the bouquet and the image is embedded in our minds as a classic gesture of romance, and even used as a sign of love and compassion during difficult times such as illness and/or the death of a loved one. Is it strange that flowers are often a big part of both weddings and funerals? Is the bouquet of flowers just an overpriced cliche or do we still consider it the classic romantic gesture?
