HAVE YOU TRANSPLANTED YOURSELF LATELY?

Greetings,

This is a Christmas cactus I received a few months before Christmas last year.  It was very young so, of course it didn't bloom. I was thrilled to see buds popping out a few weeks ago and it reminded me of a homily given by a priest who was a guest in our church one particular Sunday.

He said he had been given a plant similar to this one but it simply would not bloom. He gave it more sunlight, less sunlight, food, water, and even talked to it but it would not bloom.  This acutally went on for a few years until he mentioned it to yet another person. She immediately said, "Father, the pot is too small.  You just need to transplant it"  He did. Shortly after that it was full of blooms.

I think it is much the same way for all of us. If we stay in the same pot day after day after day, we will likely never bloom.  We have to leave our comfort zones if we are to grow.

I am striving for a strong internet presence for the 84% of buyers and sellers out there who start their searches on line and that means more, and consistent education on the technology front.

REMEMBER, IT'S NOT IMPORTANT IF SOMEONE HAS:

MORE MONEY THAN YOU

MORE HOUSE THAN YOU

MORE FRIENDS THAN YOU

WHAT'S IMPORTANT IS HOW ARE YOU MOVING FORWARD?

TRANSPLANT YOURSELF TO A DIFFERENT  "POT" AND KEEP MOVING FORWARD, ONE STEP AT A TIME.  BEFORE YOU KNOW IT YOU WILL BE IN FULL BLOOM!
