growing...

...well, i just think its strange how fast things can grow and change when your not looking. both good and bad. louise's mother gave us this plant 2 weeks ago. i never watered it until last week...i mean...its only the second plant i ever owned, the first died at work...

it was so small, and looked just like a stick in dirt. now its a HUGE flower, no idea what kind but still...a flower. but none of that matters, what does is that, how quickly and subtly things change when your not looking...both for the good and bad.....and how much we may miss by not looking, or paying some simple attention.

i think we should all try to live in the moment, not FOR, but IN. IN is healthy in so many ways...living "for" the moment actually defeats the purpose of a "moment"...
