Now for my Special plant and the story behind it AA Was Started by 2 Men Dr Bob and Bill W When Dr Bob Died Sober there was a Plant in the Room of the Hospital where he Died!!! His Wife took a cutting of the plant and Growd it then took several cuttings of it and took them to one of Dr Bob Meetings and Asked every one who had one to take cutting and pass it in as a Memory to Dr Bob When my friend Visited USA He herd this story and was Given a Cutting of the plant and Did Exatley wot was Asked and passed it around our Home Groups in the Black well here's mine this started off just 2/3 leaves
I Dont know wot it is but I love it!!!!

 

I think it's Plectranthus Nick. Someone will correct me no doubt. It's a plant that is strong and generous and we can all learn a lot from it.
How long have you had your plant now?

But now you have the respect and admiration of a lot of people (me included) for your wisdom and insight. If you hadn't had a dark patch in your life you might not have become the inspiration that you are today.

Fate, destiny, whatever, its a funny old world. Its why I have no regrets. I've made some monumental mistakes in my life, as I'm sure most people have, and I sometimes look back and think 'I wish I'd done....' or 'I wish I hadn't done...', but truth is if I'd done anything differently my life may have taken a different direction entirely. I might not have ended up with a nice semi back in my home town, which I share with my lovely wife and son. I remember having this conversation with my driving instructor years ago, and I was on about how I nearly joined the army but withdrew my application at the last minute after seeing the UN peacekeepers ordered to do nothing while they witnessed a horrendous war crime taking place. I said I sometimes wished I'd gone ahead and ended up fitter, stronger and wiser, but then if I had done I might not have met my missus because my life would have been different. Instructor shocked me by replying "or it might have been very different in that it ended". Good point, I hadn't even considered that had I joined the army I could have been killed in action. But I digress.

My point is we are who we are now. That's what's important, and we are what we are partly because of what we've learned and experienced in our past.

 

God bless your soul Clueless Thank you for your kind words They Mean a Lot Sincerly Thank you

Jenny Ive had it about 2 n half years Now an luckley its going Strong

 

Thanks for your reply Nick. You must have a strong will to get through what you have and you could so easily just have given up the struggle to fight your way back, especially dealing with the health issues you have now too. Your strength of mind gives us all something to think about.
