Excerpt:
I always knew both versions were called dandelions — the yellow flower and the white puff. But it took me fifty years to realize they weren't two separate plants. They were stages of the same life. The flower blooms and then closes, quietly transforming. The yellow petals fall away, and one day it reopens — not as a flower anymore, but as a globe of seeds, ready to be carried by the wind.
There was something about this realization that moved me deeply. A small, everyday miracle - so obvious, so overlooked. Once again, I was in awe of the brilliant engineering and design of Mother Nature - so perfect and beautiful.
I thought of the saying: Das Leben ist wie ein Windhauch — life is a breath of wind.
And I felt it, truly. How fleeting and fragile it all is. As I grow older, and as people I love move further away — in time, in distance, or in memory — I find myself drawn to the quiet wisdom of the dandelion and its simple message:
Every moment matters because it won't last forever and can be over in a Windhauch.
