Today's Flowers #14 What Do They Have To Do With Your Chronic Illness?

Visit Today's Flowers Community and view nature at its best, while opening up a whole new world of friends. There are two hobbies that the chronically ill seem to venture toward. They are photography and flower gardning. This community combines both. So you are very likely to find people, with whom, you have something in common.

This is our first offering to the Today's Flowers community. I love this beautiful plant because it was given to me by an elderly neighbor. It is the bloom of a Hosta plant. I have an ever increasing variety of the texture-rich leafy green Hosta plants. But, I had never seen one with blooms this big. When I saw her's, I just had to have one.

It was the middle of summer when I saw her beautiful Hosta garden. It was full and lush. Too pretty and too late in the season to be disturbed. So, she promised, if I came over in early spring of the next year, she would give me one. Well, it was worth the wait. She gave me several rhizomes. If you know Hostas, you know that simply cutting the rhizomes into smaller pices and planting thoes rhizomes in the spring, gives you a whole new flower bed. That is just what happened. As you can see, theye were beautiful.

Sometimes when we see seemingly health people going on with their lives, we want what they have-a healthy body and a productive life. Like my neighbors healthy and productive Hosta bed. However, it is not our time, yet. We must first rejuvinate our mind and then our body will follow.

If we are willing to eat the proper foods, go to rehabilitation therpy, take our medication correctly, perform meditation techniques and/or pray, etc... In short, delegently do what you know will help you to get to a fuller life. Instead of wanting and waiting, you will have YOUR own healthy and productive life.

Like I made up my mind that I wanted one of those beautiful Hosta plants, you must make up your mind what you want concerning your health.
