So many times I hear people say that they are bored. I can't imagine been bored because I always have so much going on.
My three passions are reading, gardening and crocheting. I read for knowledge and entertainment, I garden because I love to going outside and come back with vegetable that I grow, also I love looking at a beautiful garden. Crocheting is the first thing I learn to do that would keep me acupied for a long period of time. As a child I would sit for hours and crochet things for my dolls. It was hard for me to be bored. At about ten or eleven years old I realized that I enjoy planting things and watch them grow. I start bringing home pieces of plants t from relatives or friends went ever I visit. Growing up in Jamaica, most plant grow in abundance so it was OK to take a piece of plant from anywhere. I soon had a beautiful flower garden.
After I migrated to the USA I continue reading, crocheting and gardening. Gardening Iwould do in a smaller scale because I could only plant in pots in my apartment. I realized however that I my crocheting came in handy because I could make my own hats and scarves. Over the last thirty years I have made crochet items as gifts, for sale and for family and myself. I have three children and in each of their homes there are at least two items that I have made.
Growing my own vegetables, a flower garden ( inside or outside), making beautiful pieces and relaxing with a good book are all this that I am passionate about. These are my passions. At any given time you could find in my bag a book or my tablet or some type of crochet project, I always have at least two things that I am working on. When my fingers need a break I can pick up my book.
Whatever you are passionate about.... Enjoy it to tthe fullest.
