Now, I really like that, “……patient possibilities deeply sleep…”, my angel for today is 'Awakening'. Great!
Sandi, I hope the gardening is going well.
Thank you, R. George, the garden is doing extremely well, I, on the other hand, am a broken shell of a woman, and all over vanity.
Sandi,
You can call me George. I'm a pretty casual guy. People are surprised because my writing tends to be kind of tense. I'm working on that. I've got a lot of figuring out to do.
I have a question. “A broken shell of a woman, and all over vanity” That could mean quite a few different things. But it sounds like “evolution” talk to me. You have had it up to your eyeballs with something and your moving on.
“Vanity” that's a tough one. We all have to watch out for that one. I have found the people that don't think they have a problem with vanity are the worst offenders. It slips through the cracks on me all of the time. Right when I think I've got it figured out I start getting full of myself. Life usually wrangles me in though. Someday I'll learn.
Oh, George, I am such a chronic over-achiever, it makes me a real pain in my own back. This has to be taken lightly though, in the spirit in which it was given. It's not enough for me to have great-looking tomato plants, I've got to have the Best-Looking tomato plants. Anything worth doing is worth over-doing, right? After crawling around for hours, covered with green smears and mosquito bites, I finally decided they would do. I've pounded in 6' stakes, ran heavy twine in and out of their out-grown cages and they are beautiful. I, of course, was a green, itching mess. And why? Who knows, go figure. Vanity, I suppose. There are 25 plants and not 1 looked as bad as I did. LOL
