A friend just told me that she spotted this article I submitted on Apartment Therapy featuring my parents’ garden. I told my dad and he was happy, and told me that the garden has blossomed so much literally and figuratively since those pictures were taken (not too long ago). Proud of my parents, and forever in awe of nature and how we co-exist.
I wonder...
Selfishness gives you the kind of sense of direction that runs you straight into the ground. The thing is… a person may only realize this once it has become a consequence.
Also, why do so many people expect to be praised for the nice things they do?
My vibes… did you get them?
