We have had a Christmas Cactus for a couple of years and have not been able to get it to bloom any time near Christmas. This year we actually had buds on the cactus on Christmas day. My wife was extremely happy about this. I figured I would share a photo of the bloom in the middle of this cold wintery weather. This bloom reminds me that no matter what the circumstances are that beauty can be found if you look for it. While it is cold and dreary outside, this bloom is beautiful. So where do you look for beauty when there appears to be none around you?
