A Field of Wild Daisies
A Field of Wild DaisiesAs a child, one of my favorite things to do was to walk in a field of daisies. As I got older, the daisy remained one of my favorite flowers. To me it was and is symbolic of purity and wholesomeness. When I was married back in the early 70's, weddings were beginning to lose their traditions. Wanting to be among the "Flower Children", I chose to wear daisies strung through my ringlets instead of wearing a veil. I wanted to be married in a field of wild daisies, but that was too shocking for the village community. The village was made up of conservative farmers and Norwegian Lutherans. Being naive and people pleasing, I agreed not to be so "radical and eccentric". However, today I wonder how many of them sleep beneath a daisy in the field of their eternity. And would a child bride married in a field of wild daisies still cause their sleep a disturbance.
It took years, but I learned to trust Christ and His Truth as my guide, instead of the will and thoughts of others. For I am now free indeed!
