But (this is a big ‘but’, there is so much that is held behind this conjunction) grow in the grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To Him be glory both now and forever. Amen
2 Peter 3: 18

named after John Tradescant,
the older (1570-1638 ) and younger(1608 -1662).
These two John’s were English naturalists and explorers.
The plant has a common name, Wandering Jew.
Here is a little thought
Perfect pink back with front in green, and white stripes
We are squashed in a pot
Glowing with pride
Will we convince them that freedom's growth is out!?

Here is a thought about change from Helen Keller (1880-1968) who became blind and deaf from an illness when she was 19 months old.
Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.
Helen Keller
They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.
Andy Warhol

Spring shoots, peeking through the window
An inglenook fire all aglow is what is there
From growing green pleasure
Will it be ash next year?

Criticism, like rain, should be gentle enough to nourish a person’s growth without destroying their roots.
Happiness is neither virtue nor pleasure nor this thing nor that but simply growth, we are happy when we are growing.
Frank A Clark William Butler Yeats
