Good morning fans(do you really exist?) -- (owh i just heard two of them answered in my head) -- (they are real!),

I just want to tell you that last Sunday I bought a bunch of berry (I think) flowers from the Bangsar Market. The Chinese man (charming he was) who sold it to me said that the flower buds will bloom and they will be pretty. I was happy spot on. I mean, that would be a challenge to care for them and nourish them with water and love until they bloom. But sadly, I had to leave home for almost a week, and they were unattended just mere minutes after I bought them. I did leave them in a vase and put some water in it.

Yesterday I came home despaired, and was even more despaired when I see that they were dying! There was no water in the vase! Their thick stems probably had soaked everything within a day. And obviously they can't grow long roots to go in search for water. It was sad. I bought them to cheer me up but they failed me.

But, being the loving person that I am, I filled the vase with water last night and this morning I cut off the end of their stems so they can absorb water better. A few stalks are looking better already. And I am a happier person than last night.

Morale of story, flowers need water, air and love.


Love,
