This flower is called the mimosa. To celebrate International Women's Day in Italy, men give yellow mimosas to women.
A florist near our home carried some this year but - wow - what a price.
Happy International Women's Day to all of the strong and fierce women I have known over the years.
Thank you for showing up, standing up, shouting out, sharing your perspectives, and in so doing making the world a better place.
Thank you for teaching me how to be a better human.
There is a lot of work that needs to be done - perhaps one day we can stop saying that - but not today.
Onward.
