Life, thats how it goes

1. An eggplant, 
with old leaves, fresh leaves, 
new leaves, purple fruit, blueish flower 
and new shoots

That's how life goes, replenishing the old in the most subtle way. The old leaves will get yellow and brown, and at this stage the leaves must have been deprived of anti aging elements and antibody to fight off diseases and pests attacks. They are so vulnerable. Then they will let go the last grip and drop one after another.

New healthy shoots will appear to replace the old ones, to manufacture food for other parts to feed on, to strengthen the stems, branches, to send nutrients to the fruits and to the flowers.

An eggplant 

is showing how life goes.
