Why is it that when we are introduced to something new we may struggle to see its individuality? When I first came to the greenhouse all the plants looked the same, all the weeds looked the same. It was difficult to do anything but generalize them all as plants and not go any further simply because their individual identities were not yet a part of my reality. As I have spent countless hours learning, working and caring for them while respectfully battling weeds fighting for their fair share of sun and soil nutrients, I have come to see them all as individuals. All unique in their own right, fighting communally, but wielding their specific strengths in an attempt to thrive. It's funny to me because I can think back and apply this to many situations I have entered when at first everything looked like a blur, but by continuing to dig deeper and learn more, the uniqueness, individuality and originality always seems to shine through over time. They say that first impressions are most important, but so many relationships whether plant, human, career etc all evolve over time. Perception is a funny thing.
Perception is the only thing.
