Gardening, it is not for lazy.

 


 

Do you have hobby? Hobby is a great to help you avoidng stress and things about life that you do no like. What is your hobby? Mine is gardening, writing and used to, reading. And i guess now watching. Now, I want to talk about gardening. At first I thought gardening is easy, but turn out, it hard, and complicated and complex than I thought it would be. And it cost money to. Now, I am starting to wonder, which is better, just buy the plants or learning to plant it, as gardening, farming, is totally not for the lazy. 

 

Gardening, as I've come to realize, is a hobby that goes beyond just growing plants; it's a journey of patience, understanding, and continuous learning. When I first decided to try my hand at gardening, I assumed it would be a simple and cost-effective way to have beautiful, vibrant plants at home. Little did I know that it would demand much more than just throwing a few seeds into the soil.

One of the first lessons I learned was that gardening requires dedication and patience. Unlike some hobbies, you can't see immediate results. It takes time for seeds to sprout, and even longer for them to grow into fully mature plants. Gardening taught me the value of waiting and appreciating the slow but steady progress that nature offers.

Furthermore, gardening is a complex and intricate art. You need to understand the specific needs of each plant, such as the type of soil, sunlight, and water it requires. I soon found myself buried in gardening books, researching different plant varieties, and seeking advice from experienced gardeners. It was a delightful journey of acquiring knowledge and discovering the intricacies of the natural world.

The financial aspect of gardening also caught me by surprise. Initially, I believed it would be a cost-effective hobby, but I soon realized that investing in quality soil, fertilizers, tools, and pest control methods can add up. Whether it's purchasing pots, organic soil, or specialized gardening equipment, the expenses can accumulate quickly. However, in hindsight, I came to appreciate the value of investing in my garden, as it not only brings aesthetic beauty but also a sense of accomplishment and self-sufficiency.

While I've had my moments of doubt and frustration, I've come to appreciate the beauty of gardening. Seeing a once-barren piece of land transformed into a lush, colorful garden is immensely rewarding. It's not just about the final result; it's about the journey, the connection with nature, and the lessons learned along the way.

Now, the question of whether it's better to buy fully-grown plants or learn to cultivate them is a matter of personal choice. It depends on your goals, your level of commitment, and your passion for the process. For me, the challenges of gardening have made it a fulfilling and meaningful hobby. While it may not be for the lazy, it has taught me valuable life skills, such as patience, resilience, and a deep appreciation for the natural world.

In conclusion, gardening is a hobby that I have come to love, despite its complexities and costs. It has given me a profound sense of satisfaction, connected me with nature, and enriched my life in ways I hadn't anticipated. Whether you choose to buy fully-grown plants or embark on the journey of learning to cultivate them, it's essential to find a hobby that brings you joy, reduces stress, and allows you to escape the rigors of everyday life. Ultimately, the choice of hobby is a deeply personal one, and what matters most is the happiness and fulfillment it brings into your life.

Settle for minimal

This week, two of my friends, decided to start diet and out of sudden, I want to follow. So, starting this week, my nad my friends haven't touch rice. Well, I have eat rice twice, but my friend, zero. Ohh, dietting is so hard, but weirdly, I felt more energetic. I guess I'm going to stick with it so that I can achieve my dream boy. Jnegjengjeng. I cannot believe I talked about this because usually, I think it impossible to cut down on eating because I think I don't eat much. But still, I'm consider as fat. What I discover during this period is that I can still live goodly eventhough with lack of the things that I used to have. I'm kind a person who wants everything is there, is enough and I will be panic if my stuff is not enough and turn out its bad habit. I always ended up throw things at the end. Now, I wanted to live on a basic things. I think that will be good because I could save more and hopefully tae off same fat off my body. ;)

Impression of people is not always correct

Don't we always heard that the first impression is not always correct? But it also true that second, third and even after we know that a person for a long time, the impression we had in our mind about that particular person will not usually correct. Who am I to sayd about this? My mind telling me that. But it's freedom of expression. Is it something really annoying when you sees someone and that someone has bad expression of you? Well, but you cannot directly jump to that kind of conclusion. There must a reasons fro everything like maybe that person is ill during the time you saw him / her and that's why you got that kind of expression. My mom always taught me to think good of anything that you sees. Its much better and make your heart feel very easy instead of feeling hurt. And if you find something keep bother you and that make you feel hurt, try to ignore and let it go. Don't bother. why you should bother if that person doesn't bother?

Frugality

In my quest to find how to be rich, to be financially independent, to be able to settel my loans fast, I discover, no magic formula, except that I found this harsh word that is FRUGALITY.  I have to live frugally in order to achieve my financial goals. That's goes my dreams to do so many things if I want to achieve my financial goals. It makes me felt very sad and burden. As much as I wan to do and have so many things, I have to delay it until I really stable. Thinking back, the loans that I have now already burdensome to me, I cannot adding more debts.  Then, the other important matter is discipline. It takes a lot of discipline to achieved my goals. But my questions is, should I sacrifice to the extent of making me feels miserable, as long as I follow this rule? Like example, I have a problem with housemate, so I decided to stay alone, and I know I save money more if I share, but it will make me miserable as my previous experiences has taught me very bitter experiences. ...
