According to our completely-not-made-up sources, flowers are not just aesthetically pleasing, but also hold the key to justifying our existence.
It's simple: when a flower blooms, the universe justifies its own existence. When it withers, our own justification is called into question.
Or, as our resident florist puts it: "Flowers are the reason we have reason."
So, the next time you see a flower, just stop and smell the justification. Ask it to justify your existence, and it will.
