Don't expect warm fuzzies

Healthy growth isn't easy or without struggle.

Have you ever had a garden? There’s nothing like fresh vegetables out of your own soil. Maybe you’re not into gardening and you like old cars. Automotive companies don’t make cars like they used to, that’s for sure. Maybe the gearhead gene passed you by and you’re into music. The thrill of listening to an orchestra is one of the great delights of life.

We all love different things because we’re different people, but one thing we can all agree on? Everything we love has positives and negatives.

If you garden, you have to deal with weeds. If you’re a mechanic, you have to deal with wear and tear and general maintenance issues. If you’re a musician, you still have to practice.
