springbeauties-12
(Spring Beauty or Springbeauties (Claytonia virginica) - 12) From the side view of the top right spring beauty flower, we can see that when newly opened the stamens are longer than the pistil; but as the flower matures, the stamens lie back against the petals, leaving the pistil standing high in the center, as can be seen in the side view of the left flower.

lamb-right lamb-left Presented here are just a few of the countless components of God's creation.  Just as we cannot have human and animal life without water and plants, neither can we have lasting peace without love and compassion.  It is our hope and prayer that this series will motivate people to live and act in a cruelty-free manner; that we would no longer hurt or destroy each other, the animals or our environment.
