I do try to follow that advice, but sometimes . . .
The pansies are lovely. I planted some last fall as an experiment, and they survived the winter. They were quite pretty in the spring, but once the heat came, they didn't look so good. So I pulled them all out:(
Hari om Pansies and violas are very much a spring annual here, rarely kept beyond that one season...but joy they bring, true to their archaic name of "heart's ease"! Yxx
The pansies are pretty, but I don't really agree with the great Mr Franklin on this one. Sometimes, doubt is surely the appropriate response! Cheers, Gail.
Hari OM To question something intellectually as a result of doubt is appropriate indeed... however, Ben was, I believe, referring to matters of action; if in doubt then your instincts are saying RUN!!! Yxx
Absolutely glorious colors! And I can't tell you how many times in my life I should have listened to the when in doubt don't. It will keep you out of Mischief every time
I must confess to not having always followed BF's advice - and I should imagine that is the case for most of us.
ReplyDeleteOh what a beautiful pot of pansies...I especially like white with purple.
