When cared for correctly, the Chia figurine sprouts fuzzy growth that looks more like clover than fur. But the reality is much different. The amazing growth you see on TV doesn't happen when you get the Chia home. You wait and wait and wait and still your Chia Pet looks like it has Chia mange. And if by chance it does grow, by next Christmas, your figurine will be in need of Chia Rogaine.
Advertising promotes a warped view of overnight wonders.
Ironically, advertisers know not to expect overnight results when trying to convince you of anything-which frosting is creamier, which spaghetti sauce is chunkier, even which deodorant stick keeps you drier. Advertisers know it can take several Christmas seasons of seeing that Chia before you actually buy one. Hey, we all know that the decision to become a Christian is a big one. So instead of expecting an instant conversion, allow the Holy Spirit time to water and germinate the seeds you've planted. Just Do it.
