Just yesterday there was no sign of anything untoward growing on the lawn. Today there are little pockets of mushrooms and toadstools scattered here and there and everywhere. Where did they come from? I am sure the excess rain is the reason they are suddenly appearing, but where have they been hiding? Their roots or spores or whathaveyou have lain dormant, ready to sprout with the right conditions. And voila! Here they are.
Isn't that just like so many things in our lives. Given the right environment, suddenly things appear from nowhere to populate our worlds. Good and bad things. In the right setting, blessings seem to multiply or bad things seem unavoidable. Seasons occur when for some inexplicable reason you are blessed with a plethora of sweaters, for example. Or books. Or concert tickets. And just as inexplicably, they disappear without warning or so much as a by your leave.
We shall see how long the fungus lasts. Once the rain dries up they may well collapse into their dormant state, waiting for the right set of conditions to happen. You just never know.
