Growing up in discomfort

I have been looking for days at this small plant that has grown on a platform where my Split machine used to be. I haven't had a Split for a long time. One day I heard an explosion out there, nobody knew what the problem was and I sold it to a technician for parts. Maybe he did know... but that's not the subject of this blog... Well, I don't know, if you have time or curiosity, wait for the end.

During the last season of the disconnection of our electrical system, my friend mdrguez, who is always so attentive, put a delicious meal in a bag for me, made with four hands, that is to say, between her and her husband. But in the bag there were also tomatoes, a piece of cabbage and this radish. I'm sorry, my friend, I didn't eat it, I don't know what happened that I forgot. Then there, forgotten and cold, roots sprouted from it.

A few days ago, I sowed some seeds in this place. It's one of the side corridors of my house. I've been upset and resting for days, so I haven't bothered to do any gardening, no mowing, no watering, nothing... besides that place doesn't have fertile soil. Look what it's like. The seeds I carelessly threw there were from things I peel and eat and I put them in a small container in the kitchen.

It looks like that one, the radish, won't be thrown, but planted because I think I'm feeling better. But here, look, some plants have grown. I haven't watered them and those passion fruit plants have grown. Look closely at the photo.

I came closer and saw with joy that a bean plant was also growing and is very happy with its... (what is this called) 😂

I don't know but I think this is a tomato plant... and there are two or three more like it.

A cat is growing here. 🤣

Yin saw me coming and started to roll around in that dust 🤦‍♀, and to say meow, meow... I didn't quite understand what he meant but what he said must be something to do with food.

This grew out of my discomfort at having to cook unwillingly... 😒

I thought this wasn't going to fill me up so I heated up some rice and threw it on top.

There was also a lot of silence and suddenly someone started hammering at my neighbour's house... I heard stones falling on the zinc tiles on my terrace... I made a gesture of annoyance, poured myself a jug of water. I drank... I breathed. And I listened to this while I ate my lunch.

Life is really beautiful and is always showing us details... notice that something is always happening even if we are not looking, even if we are not aware of it. And things happen that can be key pieces in changing your own destiny, that which one day I thought was woven by chance, but no. You build it yourself with thoughts and actions.

I went to water the plants. I sowed the radish. It won't be the great sowing, nor the great harvest, but I'll be happy to see them grow and bear fruit.

As for TED Talks, it's something I like to listen to in order to learn and get other people's point of view. You don't know when someone else's knowledge can save you.

I told you at the beginning that I think the technician did know what the Split had, but he saw in my eyes the desire I had to get rid of it. Or maybe, he knew I was going to sell it cheap because of something I said.... whatever. The discomfort that today causes me not to have that Split when I feel very hot, always reminds me of something... is another learning on my path of growth.

This has been a part of my day... thank you for taking your valuable time to read here.
