Grow Where You're Planted

I was recently told by a former employee that this saying, which apparently was in my office, had a huge influence on her. To be honest, I don't remember it - I don't have it in my office now. I would have to look through my things to find it. I don't know if it is on something that someone gave me as a gift, and I kept in my office or what?? It had totally slipped out of my mind, until she reminded me of it.

I was happy to hear however, that something that I had done had a positive influence on this person. She said she felt like it reflected the the philosophy of life that she had observed in me (kind of like when life hands you lemons, make lemonade). This person said that they have tried to follow the philosphy that this saying represents.

Which just goes to show, that you never know the effect what you say or do has on another person - or what they will remember about you. Thankfully, it was a positive thing in this instance. Strange the things that people remember about me!
