<p>Hello to you listening in <a href="https://www.australia.com/en/places/brisbane-and-surrounds/guide-to-brisbane.html">Brisbane, Australia</a>!</p><p>Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is 60 Seconds, your daily dose of hope, imagination, wisdom, stories, practical tips, and general riffing on this and that.</p><p>Recently my friend and <a href="https://www.akimbo.com/">Akimbo</a> colleague <a href="https://www.changingfutures.com.au/about">Leanne Gordon</a> celebrated a Happy Birthday. I sent her an animated card with a yellow dandelion that becomes a puffball before disappearing. Leanne replied with a quote I’d not heard before, “<i>Some see a weed, I see wishes</i>.” Isn’t that lovely?</p><p>Did you know that the pretty yellow dandelion flower, once pollinated, transforms into a delicate puffball of seeds looking nothing like the original? It’s this puffball that we might enjoy picking and blowing on while making a wish.</p><p>Click <a href="https://www.sciencealert.com/dandelion-timelapse-video-yellow-flower-white-seed-head-same-plant">here</a> to enjoy a 90 second time lapse video that takes you from yellow flower to puffball.</p><p><strong>Question:</strong> What do you see differently than others do; and what would you wish if you could puff on a dandelion?</p><p><i>This is the place to thrive together.
