Dandelions are often considered weeds, and are aggressively cut, sprayed, and dug up. But their roots are deep, their blossoms like sunshine, their seeds stuff of wishes, and practically their whole plant edible, delicious, and healing.

Don't let the perceptions and actions of others defeat you, particularly those who'd like to get rid of you simply because you don't fit their idea of acceptable. Build community, bring light, encourage dreams, provide when you can, and help in healing. Be a dandelion. Persist.
