"Last weekend, the morning glories took me by surprise -- as they always do. . . .
"Yet, just as the plants I tended were reaching primetime, their
beauty was eclipsed by the bright bold explosion of vibrant pink morning
glories bursting forth from previously nondescript vines along my fence
and in my neighbors' yards. . . .
"Lowly, often reviled morning glories may point to something important
about life itself. So often, the plans we make -- even when they are
realized -- pale in comparison to the joy that comes our way
unexpectedly and uninvited.".
In a recent commentary, writer/Professor Lucia A. Silecchia
reflected on the special joy that comes from beautiful, unhoped for surprises that fill our lives.
