Remember, You Are Loved

Money can't buy happiness, but gifts from others can be a reminder that you are loved. The flowers in this piece were a gift from my boyfriend for Valentine's Day and our anniversary. Six flowers for six months together. At the time I was so stressed with schoolwork and rough times at home, but whenever I looked at those flowers, they lifted me up and made me feel like I could accomplish anything. The anxiety and stress will still be there, but I can get through it with love. Looking at those flowers relieved the stress in my mind and allowed me to regain my confidence because they reminded me that I am not only loved but that someone believes in me.
