We are taught at a young age who to be, where to go, what to like, learn, love… At what point in our life do we realize we have been lead down a path that we didn’t choose to go down. Throughout my childhood, and let’s be honest most of my adult life, I’ve spent chasing that feeling people call happiness. Power, money, sex, drugs, nothing gave me that feeling like this is what life’s about. This is the meaning of existence. I’ve always been an avid smoker but never actually took the time to try and grow it. The opportunity presented itself so I decided to give it a go. And I can honestly say I now know what I’ve been looking for. Happiness if fleeting, love fades, but the peace I get from taking care of this little plant that grew because of me is all I’ve ever needed. God placed this in my life to show me how something as complex as me can love something as small and fragile as this plant. Thank you all
