"The scent of good does go against the wind"



No flower's scent goes against the wind ..... but the scent of the good does go against the wind.

These flowers are beautiful. They remind me of this line from John Keats's poem:" A thing of beauty is a joy for ever - it will never pass into nothingness". The flowers have scent. Unfortunately, the scent only goes in one direction - the direction of the wind. And I agree, the scent of good does go against the wind. Mohan Goel.
