The Most Dramatic Breakup of 2011

I recently read a great line in New York Magazine that made me smile:

"It's not easy being a stem. You go through life supporting a family of leaves, buds, shoots, what have you, only to be separated from them in the end and unceremoniously tossed into the trash".

Haha, never thought of it that way before! Sooo dramatic, New York Magazine, but I love it!
