I know summer isn’t technically over yet… but I’m already missing it. 🥹🌊
There’s just something about being barefoot in the water, feeling the sun on your skin, and slowing down enough to notice what’s growing around you.
These beautiful white lotuses 🪷 felt especially meaningful.
The lotus grows from the mud beneath the water, yet rises above it and blooms beautifully. Because of this, it has long been used as a symbol of purity, transformation, awakening, and rising above what surrounds you. The white lotus, in particular, is associated with mental and spiritual purity. 🪷
And maybe that’s why I love them so much.
A reminder that where you come from doesn’t have to determine where you’re going.
You can grow through the murky seasons.
You can rise.
You can bloom.
And sometimes… you just need to stop, put your feet in the water, and remember that life is beautiful. 🤍
Already counting down until summer comes back around. ☀️
