Change the Way You Think

"If you don't like something change it; if you can't change it, change the way you think about it. ~ Mary Engelbreit

This yellow thistle invaded my flower garden. Ordinarily, its life would have been short, but I wanted to see what it looked like when it bloomed so I kept it around for a while.
