One of the most surprising things abut this semester is that my poinsettia is still alive. It never really ever looked too good. I have no idea how to care for it. I think you're supposed to put it in the closet until the fall? I clearly don't know. But, treating it like a normal plant, I forgot to water it and I dropped a ton of things on it. A couple stems broke off. But it is still chugging along. As crappy as it looks (and it looks a lot worse in person), it is still living. This little plant provides a moral applicable to every day life. Just keep living. And besides, red is my favorite color. I guess as bad as it can get, there's still hope. If this plant can do it, then we all can.
