9 Pictures of flowers to look at when you're stressed

We have so much technology in our lives, and so many industrialized cities and towns throughout the world that are just lacking nature. On top of that, I'm beginning to learn that the older I get the more responsibilities I have, the less free time I have to just stop and enjoy nature.

Life can be stressful sometimes, and one thing that helps me the most when I am stressed to admire these interesting plants. I have tons folders on my computer that are full of photos of flowers and I want to give everyone the opportunity to destress for a few minute and look at these flowery pictures.

On top of all of the stress relieving qualities that flowers have, they also make pretty nice backdrops when you want to take cute photos for your Instagram. That's always a plus.

I hope you enjoyed looking at these pictures as much as I do, and I hope that the next time you get the chance, you will stop and smell the flowers, AND send me some pics of them while you're at it!
