Forward Progress

Progress lies not in enhancing what is, but in advancing what will be.

Kahlil Gibran

“A rolling stone gathers no moss.” Yea. We’ve all heard that. And since it’s Spring, a time of rebirth and growth, maybe the moss should get some attention. According to the gardening website ShunCy , “moss takes anywhere from a few weeks to 3-4 months to grow and spread across the surface.” Which doesn’t seem that slow compared to the growth rate of many plants (except you, dandelions, you enthusiastic try hards, you). Go go go, moss!
