Chrysanthemums are beautiful flowers that can grace any garden. I fancy the yellow ones.

I find the information about chakras quite interesting. Especially the idea that the color for the heart is green, instead of red.

you know, you cannot rely on your adult kids anymore.
One day, they might put you into old folks home when you become useless.
Of course, there are chances that your adult kids might take care of you for life.
Hard to say but it is wise to keep some money aside for old age.
Just to be safe side

In the African culture parents are very very crucial and important to a growing child so is a grown up. I for one value my mum very much and would have done the same for my dad if he was still alive but he’s not. The thing is as we grow up and go to put own homes yes we won’t be there for our parents everyday but we will always be there whenever they need our help. I have never thought of putting my mum in an old peoples homè when she gets old, I just feel that they is not right. We need to take care of our parents whoever old and stubborn that get because we will also get there he some point and we need to ask ourselves some questions as well, will we want the same thing done to us when we get there? Am sure most of us will say no. So take some time and attend you your parents when they are old don’t leave them with strangers when you their family is still around. I always think that sacrificed so much for me why can’t I do the same for them. I saw my mum do the same for her mum and that moved me a lot. Don’t just say that they should plan themselves and learn to live by themselves that also need your help.

In all Islamic countries old persons and parents are considered blessing on earth and home and house. Here in my country old parents are more respected than young men and women all respect the old parents and never leave them alone in old age.

In other countries what the young men and women do with the old parents I do not know piratically but know verbally read or heard from someone.

I think personally old men and women must be respected because their fruits we are and we reject our second creator on earth is cruelty on earth. When some one ignores old parents the same process is repeated withe man who ignores his parents.

Parents are blessings on earth
We are their youth fruits
They are our second creators
They trunks and we are the trunks’leaves
And fruits and green branches
Full of maturity and wisdom
Full of experience and
Free of sins om old age
Sin free thoughts
Leading to heaven
They are oak trees
Under its shade we all sit

We must respect old parents because we are also born to be old one day and keep in mind youth is faithless like a young virgin and leaves you soon, do not boast of your youth because behind youth old age is waiting for its turn will come soon to touch you slowly making you bowing down your gait, hollow cheeks, wrinkled forehead, trembling hand and legs…a scarecrow standing in the field of corn to frighten not the crows or birds but children, young men and women all are fed up with old men.

I think I have already complied with this unwritten rules. I have planted many times by participating tree planting activity, beside I am also planting different kinds of fruit bearing trees in our backyard.

Everybody needs some greenery around them, whether it’s a tree on the yard or a house plant or both. Besides the fact that it helps purify the air you breathe, it’s just makes your environment so pleasant. 🙂

Trees help keep communities lively. Planting trees within communities and generate togetherness. Perhaps more people should be planting trees but planting trees isn’t for everyone. A lot of communities have HOA’s that will plant trees for the residents. Thanks for shining light on tree planting.

If this is taught right from the day a child enters a school situations could change and there could be more greenery. Greenery is important if we have to breathe clean air and this is possible if everyone pitches in.

you know, 20 years ago, my father in law had planted a coconut plant, a cactus, a tea tree and a few papayas in the garden.
They grew up well, until my neighbor started to spray weedkillers killing them all except for the coconut tree.
You may wonder why, right?
He hated us planting too many plants, trees and thinks that it is a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
My hubby and I saw him secretly spraying but we just dont want to declare face off with him
He didn’t kill the coconut tree because he wanted to drink the coconuts,
So right now, we only have one coconut tree left

I believe we should plant trees not only to have a beautiful and cool surroundings but also to have a fresh air that we could breath in to decrease air pollution and reduce breathing dis order. Trees are important for a number of reason. It used the sun’s energy to perform photosynthesis so that
plants can store it as chemical energy using water and carbon dioxide to create glucose. Therefore,
glucose is very essential for all living things for it a source of energy. Plants release this oxygen into the atmosphere. This release is important because most living things, including the plants themselves, use the oxygen during respiration to release the energy stored in glucose in a form that they can use for all life-sustaining processes.
Planting trees can also help reduce consumption of
energy due to moderating effect on local
climate;
Maintain 50% of biodiversity. Fauna
and flora preservation;
Reduction of noise pollution and wind;
Combat erosion ;
Material providers such as drugs, teas,
essences, pigments, wood, coal, fiber, resin,
paper, oils, honey, fruits, flowers, seeds,
Influence on climate (humidity, precipitation, temperature);
Protection of rivers and springs;
Soil protection and fertilization;
Sense of calm and comfort to people
(stress relief);
Trees can serve as walls ( visual barrier) and
they do serve as walls for organic farmers
when their neighbors deal with pesticides;

Yes we must grow plant in our country or town because plants are the beauties of country and nature. WE love growing plants everywhere and all over the world so that we may live otherwise we all will die soon without plants.

Because nature calms people and it also helps them psychologically rejuvenate,” said Professor Frances Kuo of the University of Illinois. “They are better able to handle challenges which come their way.

Stress could be one of the largest negatively impacting factors for our health. Exercise and meditation are just an example of how people strive to keep stress levels lower, but as many individuals know, another fabulous solution is surrounding yourself with nature. Walking through the park or sitting in the grass may have effects far more beneficial than having a stiff drink to unwind, for example.

Another study showing why we should plant more trees analyzed morbidity of more than 345,000 people based on records from 195 different physicians spread across the Netherlands and found that individuals with a higher percentage of green space within a 1 km radius in the immediate vicinity of their postal code had a lower prevalence of 15 of 24 disease clusters.

Make it a goal to spend some time outdoors every single day. Water the flowers around your house; go for a walk, or stop your car at a park on the way home and enjoy the view. Don’t always turn to artificial and manmade solutions for your health and mental wellbeing.
