My program manager choosing to quit on me. Assignments that the
third grader needs help with. The younger one going through one of those
difficult phases. The marathon coming up on Sunday. Itchy throat, runny nose. Sleepless
nights. Early morning conference calls. In five words- Life Spiralling Out of
Control.
“Out with my plants”, I thought. “I need to simplify my
life.” Maybe I could stop watering them, and they would just go. But you can’t let
plants die, can you? Grumbling, I reached out with a watering can. And saw this.

Beautiful! My plants tend to die on me. Unlike the cats, they do not meow if they want/need something, and unlike the BF they cannot take care of themselves. (I feel ashamed.)
Natasha - What a lovely, lovely 'photo of a lovely flower! Yes, that's enough to restore anyone's equanimity and more...
I love how nature can make you stop and smile.
Well said! Life can takes us on quite a ride. Glad for the restful visions!'
Hugs
