The Beauty of Future Summers
Ten years in the future is a long way away, but, the ten that have just gone have either flown quickly past – or - have crept snailpacingly by to where they are now which is the same as where they were then! But, action means speed, and, the more that one does, the quicker the clock actually turns - and time, for Rebecca A. Hughes and her partner Jeremy, has become shorter and shorter since they started their business just ten years ago!
But, what is important is now; and, the seeds which Rebecca and Jeremy then hopefully planted are now blossoming. And the results are amazing! Their gardening landscape business, Oakapple Services, has well and truly taken root in the green north of England where they live!
In the beginning was the vision, and, with this in mind, Rebecca went to work on herself by turning herself into herself by making her hobby her life. At first came the hard work of learning – studying garden architecture is a hard and time taking challenge; and then followed the task of convincing future clients; and then finally, the turning of barren garden plots into islands of beauty and penetrating goodness and peace.
But, when good things start rolling, they take on a speed of their own, and one has to run to keep up. Word quickly spread!
And now, with just ten very short years to their credit, Rebecca and Jeremy are busier than ever; and their works of pure horticultural art aren’t secrets any more. They are there and growing for all to see, admire and enjoy!
After-all, when an acorn starts growing, its strength keeps going for ever, but, where it is planted is very important, for it provides a quality of life for many future summers as well!
