Being Yourself

Being yourself is a very tough job to do. You try to cheat yourself all the time and convince it that the shortest route is what you want.

But your core self is not one who easily gives in.It doesnt let you live in peace until it gets it way

Bringing in Hope

I have heard many people say "growing plants is so magical", and I have felt that myself.Even more so yesterday.
I have a jasmine plant which gives some amazingly fragrant flowers in spring and fall.
It is brought back in for the winter;this happens every year; but this winter was different, its leaves started turning dry and almost looked like they would fall off, I thought it may be the heat waft coming from the vent close by. But moving it to a different location did not help either. In a few weeks it looked almost barren.
I kept my fingers crossed and I thought I will let spring work its magic.
It is not spring yet...
but one fine day I wake up and find little green shoots from its end.so magical, It feels like it has beaten all odds and is ready to begin life again with renewed vigor.
