I thought of giving away flowers partially inspired by the Mesoamerican divine energy Xochiquetzal - representative of flowers, music, art, beauty, the healing arts, and fertility. In Mesoamerican culture, to honor the divine is to honor yourself. Surrounding yourself with beauty and caring for the land that cares for you.
