it is so true. my thoughts is give that person the message once, but then let it go...no nagging, that will not work. also we need to remember that the message we give may be OUR message and not theirs. there is much to think about with this quote. it is true but can be not true also.... still thinking on this one. our TOPS meetings come to mind, I have to be careful because I know what losing weight does for us, but in speaking about my weight loss, I have to remember I went my whole life overweight and knowing what to do is easier than the doing of it
Having been a teacher for 37 years, yes there's lots that kids aren't ready for. One that really gets me is people who want kids taught about household budgets and money management. I'm a gardener. Enough said about seeds.
Thank you so for taking the time to leave a comment. I enjoy reading them very much and always try to return a visit. As I do monitor comments it may take a while for them to appear, even quite late depending on what is going on and how much time I am able to spend on the computer.
I appreciate all who look at my blog, but I won't be publishing any businesses. If you are only able to publish anonymously, would you sign your name please, and leave an addy so I can return your visit where possible? Thank you!
Great truth in this quote!

DeleteI love it!!! And I do believe it is true. Especially for people with a closed mind.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ginny :)
DeleteIt sounds pretty close to the mark to me - though that seed should be planted with care, and not hammered into place.
ReplyDeleteAgreed, thank you EC :)
DeleteYes its true but unfortunately social media can plant too many weeds.
ReplyDeleteThank you Diane :)
DeleteI could not agree more. One does not have to listen properly but often an idea is brought forth. Take care Diane

DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteIt is true, just planting a seed is a start. Have a happy day and great week ahead.
Thank you Eileen :)
DeleteSo true. Also, you can't see a plant until it breaks the surface, but by then it has been growing for some time.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sandi :)
