So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

The Advantages Of Artificial Plants Over The Natural Ones

By Lucien Barton


Over the past decades, man has constantly been evolving in many fields pertaining to making life simpler and less stressful. The natural ecosystem has always been an issue ever since industrialization and deforestation began. Many activists have emerged to protect the natural ecosystem from dying through a number of protective means. Among them is the use of artificial plants in place of real types in many homes and offices which has proved beneficial in a number of ways.

Though the ordinary flowers are most preferred in houses, some of them are not appropriate in some quarters. A good case in point is the notion that they are not supposed to be located in the bedroom, probably because they emit carbon dioxide during the night, so sleeping in such a room that is closed may be difficult. Carbon dioxide is a known green house gas that enhances global warming too and hence the need for replacement with synthetic varieties in such scenarios.

Many people have also found any fake plant to be a great source of aesthetic value around them. Many businesses, schools, offices and homes have adopted the use of synthetic flowers for beauty. Since fake blossoms do not grow, they tend to retain their aesthetic value day in day out compared to natural plants that grow and lose their beauty.

Other than the synthetic flowers, there also exist the trees of artificial nature, the ones that are huge, over 3ft in height. Possessing such a plant requires a lot from the vessel that contains it and it needs steady water supply, not too much and definitely not too little. Apart from water, these trees demand frequent nourishing to restore the nutrients depleted from the soil. It is in this sense that artificial plants are favorable because with them, the above problems will be avoided.

Natural flowers basically require more labor than the artificial ones. Many people are usually employed if natural varieties are to grow. In contrast, artificial types are cheap and cost effective in the long run and therefore help to reduce labor costs.

Furthermore, with the worsening economic depression still looming in the world market, many are opting on means to cut off cost and improve on their profit margins despite the worsening economic situation. One of the means such companies have adopted is the replacing of natural types with fake flowers. With these, laborers that worked on the natural kind have been laid off and the money used on them invested elsewhere.

Natural types will always aggravate allergic reactions like asthma because of production of pollen grains during pollination seasons. In the work places and at many homes, most people usually succumb to allergic reactions without knowing the cause, only to go to the physicians and be surprised that the very flowers they possess are the cause. In an attempt to minimize such cases, many people are opting on replacing natural plants with synthetic ones.

In conclusion, artificial plants have come to be more advantageous in our current society compared to natural plants because they are helping much in solving some of the emerging problems. This variety is easier to maintain in terms of cost and labor. They are environmental friendly too.
