What have you learned?

RockOn · 06-07-2012, 02:43 PM

JustJo, I appreciate your encouraging words. Thank you.

I think I was a little down after work yesterday when I went out and examined those no-bloom callas and decided I had failed.

Bet you are right and I will get lots of calla blooms to share around town by late summer. They are taking longer than I expected is all.

Time heals and we may remember how we got those scars, but in the end, someone with a conscience feels it at some point.
I have had 2 people who hurt me come back into my life knowing i would accept them back because i hold no hate, and eventually it comes full circle. Cautiously I walk.

My late Mother taught me the valuable life lesson when I was no more than 7 or 8 years old...

While at the hearing aid service (to fit my eldest brother with hearing aids) I was given a set of ear phones to wear that dampened sound -- closely replicating what hearing loss was like for my brother.

To this day I recall that experience to remind myself that unless I am in another person's shoes I have no clue what they may be going through at any given moment.

The difference between and obi knot, a lark's head and a running loop. I knew how to make them just didn't know their names.
