Today marked the second seed party (for those of you who are unaware of this strange terminology, a "seed party" is a term that we at Pope Horticulture Club use to describe the joyful, yet tedious task of planting new seeds in our lovely greenhouse) for our plant sale in the upcoming months to support our club and the greenhouse. After school on this rainy day, our hardworking, and might I add, immensely attractive, crew came out, even though burdened by a nights worth of homework and the fatigue from a Monday at school. We hauled bags of soil in the rain, filled trays, watered, and ultimtetly planted 700 forms of life. Just think, our young, filthy hands, though the world may view our age as immaturity, and our hair and clothes as "phases", started a cycle of life today. A cycle of life that will grow and grow and grow and eventually, hopefully, support others, in the form of food or flower. Plants are quite amazing, arent they? So if you ever feel like you have not made an impact in the world today or ever, plant some seeds, start some life. You'll feel better' I swear by it!
