In Letting the Lotus Bloom Kevin Joel Kelly shares a collection of reflections on his years as a floral designer end the journey which brought him to appreciate the lessons flowers provided and the deepening journey of a creative Life. This book is inspiration for all who love flowers and flower arranging whether that be elegantly placing a simple rose or daisy in a bud vase or a complex symphony of blossoms attentively in a vase.

This book will also appeal to all those looking for inspiration for art no matter the medium. Our souls call us to speak the truths of our being through acts of art. These then become the lessons for making our lives themselves works of art. As with flower arranging for the author, our acts of art become both our prayer and our mission.

I never gave flowers a second thought, other than buying them every now and then and sometimes remembering to put an aspirin in the water. Then I read Letting the Lotus Bloom. I found it to be both strong and delicate, like the flowers it celebrates. I loved the voice and the stories. And, not surprisingly, it left me with a new respect for flowers and the people who work with them. What did surprise me, however, was how powerfully Letting the Lotus Bloom connected me with soul in general, my soul in particular, and the beauty of soul's unfolding. I will read this book more than once, and I will give it to friends, with and without an accompanying bouquet. -Victoria Moran, author of Creating a Charmed Life

This book is a gift to all of us on a creative path! It reminds us that successes, setbacks, joy and tears are all a part of the process, but that, like the lotus, we will always bloom. It is how we are designed. -Ardith Beveridge, AAF, AIFD, PFCI, CAFA, MSF, Founder and Director of the Koehler and Dramm's Institute of Floristy
