Last October or so at work we were pulling plants out of our clients pots- all the summer annuals and such. When I made it back to the shop, I saw a nice hibiscus in the compost pile and decided to take it home. I potted it up, lowkey stole some potting soil, and in my car it went. I watered it once I got home, and then over the next two weeks or so it dropped almost all its leaves except for one.

It was the single most severe case of transplant shock ive ever seen. Understandably, of course- it had been pulled out of the place it had lived since early May, been left in the sun in the back of a truck for a solid ten hours, with No protection or anything on the rootball, and didn't get Any water until late that evening.

I cut all the branches back some- only a few inches, because I didn't want to stress it out more. It started pushing new growth along almost every branch. Sometime over the winter it managed to produce a Single bud, and then a flower maybe two inches across. Currently it's outside again, still in the plastic pot I grabbed out of the recycle bin at work, matured dark green leaves along all of it, and pushing even more new ones along the tips, like normal. I'm proud of my little guy, and if it was able to survive all of that (I genuinely wasn't sure if it'd survive the winter, after it dropped all the leaves) I'm confident we can all make it through too :)

(I'll probably cut it back some more in a couple weeks to see if I can get it to bush out more- it's still a little rough and spindle-y. But I love it <3)

How lovely

this does not apply if you wear exclusively leggings. Those things tear all the time you need like a million on standby

It’s very important to always have hope. No matter what anyone says. It doesn’t matter if a thousand people are surrounding you and desperately telling you that everyone is shitty, and nobody cares about you, and the world is horrible, blah blah blah, and that you HAVE to hate everyone and distrust everyone. Don’t listen to them. You are allowed to still have hope. You are still allowed to see the good in the world. You are still allowed to put out into the world what you want to see. You are still allowed to be who you want to be.

And you are still allowed to be kind, even if it seems hopeless, even if you feel like you’re out of options, even if some people are mean when you try to spread kindness or be kind to them. Do not be discouraged. There will always be people like that in the world, there will always be all kinds of people in the world because the world is diverse and complex, but there will also be one or two people who will feel hopeful because you were kind to them. That is what matters. That is what will always matter.
