This Day

On this 15th day of 26 days of kindness, it’s a collage of Daylilies (Hemerocallis spp) to honor Daniel Barden. Daylilies bloom for only one day but like these 26 acts of kindness, a Daylily has prolific buds, guaranteeing colorful blossoms in our summer gardens for weeks at a time. A Daylily is that one workhorse perennial that can be counted on to always show up, be of service, much like the firefighter that Daniel hoped to be. 

The first image shows two beautiful Daylily blossoms in the hot July sun. It is symbolic of the first post written on November 20th to honor both Daniel & Noah Pozner. The last two images are a favorite Daylily in our summer garden. It is called ‘Moses Fire’ and seemed appropriate to honor Daniel on this December 3rd, 2013, this 15th day of kindness. Richelle E. Goodrich states it best. “When you tend to another's dying embers, you find both warmth and an increase in the glow of your own fire.”
