The husbands pea plant:
Some flowers, that I'm just waiting for the flowers to actually come out and play:
And a good reason NOT to give up on plants. This kind of goes along with my previous plant post. They need LOVE to thrive (much like humans...) .. we almost gave up on this one... because we're not awesome (yet) when it comes to nature-y things... we kept these plants in the hall over the winter ... thought they were a lost cause... and the husband says you know? Let's at least try and get a little more life out of them.. and while it's not the prettiest plant (it's actually pathetic looking right now...)
There are a few new sprouts coming out!! Again, this may seem like no big deal to you... but for myself? well this plant reminds me of myself a little bit... just kind of given up on.. left for dead... but someone saw potential in it... and with a little love, time, and energy... new life is being breathed into it. In a couple of years, it will probably be more beautiful than the day we purchased it.
Slow down. Stop once in a while. I think people are too busy and stressed over trying to acquire as much as they can, that they miss the chance to see what they already have.
