In three weeks, thick growth of new shoots have appeared in all the flowering hedge plants on both sides of the walkway to our cottage. With the day temperature shooting up in early January, unlike in the previous years when the day temperature usually hovers around thirty degrees of C in January, I wondered whether the late pruning would lead to a catastrophe.
We live with many uncertain situations which take us by surprise!
During the last three weeks, two of my colleagues told me about their decision to discontinue the job and another is through many demands at home front. We have had some plans for advancing the facilities in the department in the first quarter of the new year.
Looking at the shoots in these plants, thriving against the heat of the day I feel encouraged and hopeful that even this difficult season would bring something purposeful!
To live above discouragement is a calling!
