I...I can't believe I didn't see this post.<br /><br />I have had a large one of these shrubs on the corner of my house for 30 years. It has sent up new stalks and new plants from runners but the parent plant has reached it's life span I guess because over the last two years, the core has died out. It's one of those old fashioned shrubs that people used to have. You don' see them so much now.ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155836879539082676.post-53347490620603497052009-09-21T01:01:39.414+10:002009-09-21T01:01:39.414+10:00Hi Delwyn,

I would be suspect of anyone walking around talking about how honorable they are!<br /><br />I have read that a measure of personal integrity is doing the right thing when no one is looking.<br /><br />I think the Golden Rule of doing unto others as you would have them do unto you works like a charm.Golden Westhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04590087189810939432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155836879539082676.post-6753823566749639702009-09-20T23:24:17.161+10:002009-09-20T23:24:17.161+10:00I honestly couldn't think of anything that'...I honestly couldn't think of anything that's the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.

Thanks Alicia for your valued additions...<br /><br />Happy daysDelwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16813713107604750354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155836879539082676.post-67239577173729118262009-09-20T14:35:49.792+10:002009-09-20T14:35:49.792+10:00Hi Nancy

All the above mentioned..love, hope, faith, charity and even kindness all have some form of variable that affects them from day to day. Perhaps the dark side of things...sin would be something that is always constant..although I am not one to think on the dark side!
