Drought resistant

After the excitement of the last few days taking lots of photos of birds, sunsets and the full moon I was a bit lost to find a subject today. I was wondering around my garden looking for a photo topic when I saw this humble little plant that grows prolifically in parts of the garden. I love the pretty pink border around the leaves and the "rose" appearance. It's a succulent that is a pleasure to have in the garden at times like these when we are in the grip of a terrible drought. These hardy little plants just keep surviving - even when there's no rain and no watering for weeks. Succulents have my respect because they flourish in the "desert places".

I'm reminded that so often when I am going through those dry times, either spiritually or emotionally I complain unlike this beauty. I could learn a lesson from my friend here.
