Baby leaf

Sometimes it's good to be sick...because I can stay home and notice small insignificant things which I am not noticing everyday.

Just like my plant. I water it every morning and although I can see that it is growing and there are new leaves, I never took the time to actually touch a leaf and stare at it for a few minutes and caress it like a baby.

I took this photo two weeks ago, until I forgot it and remembered it again this morning while I was watching my plant dancing with the wind in the rain.

Have you ever touched a new leaf or a "baby leaf"?

It is soft and smooth to touch. So...fragile
And its color is brighter than an old leaf.

Babies are really beautiful, be it human, animal or plant :)

The reason is they are pure. Not tainted with life's stains and bathe with hardships and struggles.

What difference will it make if a person remains pure even as he grows up?

It is best to be soft and weak and rely on God's strength
rather than be proud and strong and conquer the world with own abilities which are sure to fail.
Sometimes we think we know what to do...and then God will make us see that what we consider right is foolishness in His eyes.

Surely, the best life is that of a life of a baby.
