Gardening for your life
I once heard a quote by a very famous person who was
talking about divorce. I don’t follow the celebrity circuit
but this particular quote was very good. Bruce Willis
answered the question about his impending divorce like
this, “Marriage is a garden and to ensure that you have a
good marriage every day you must tend to the weeds.”
Because I’m a wanna-be and a sometimes gardener, I related
to that statement on a more global scale, life.
Today I was speaking with a friend about some hard lessons
that we had both been encountering and he said he was
taking a day last week to reflect. He said that he was
sitting in the backyard and found that a wonderful metaphor
for looking inside his life’s backyard and working on the
issues surrounding him. I told him about the gardening
metaphor and he agreed that that was exactly what he was
doing.
Every day we have an opportunity to interact with people.
We can choose to be kind and generous or we can choose to
be short and curt. If we can essentially look within
ourselves first before we react and respond to another in
any other way than with a smile and kindness we are
treating ourselves
well. By
gardening the weeds from our lives we have more freedom
from negative thoughts and negative influences and allowing
the landscape to flourish with abundance of beauty. Weeds
could be those nuisance attitudes, negative thoughts,
impatience, frustration, and hurt. Just like weeds, if
enough of them are left in place they then grow too big and
need to be excavated.
You’ve heard the saying “We reap what we sow”. This is true
in every aspect. If you speak negatively about others,
other’s will speak negatively about you. By gossiping about
others’ you invite other’s to gossip about you (as a client
of mine will attest to). If you are kind, even in your most
difficult times, you find that life treats you well and
people appear from nowhere to help you. If you volunteer or
help others then you will be helped. Just because you don’t
see the help in the way you expect remind yourself that it
could be in a way that is much more appropriate than you
expected.
If you’ve ever cut someone with words and admonished
yourself afterward, think about how amazing it would be if
you turned the tables. Instead of cutting someone down with
the power of words be overly kind and see what results you
get. The energy behind our words is truly magic and can
make life easier or much more difficult. Speaking kind
words about others’ is like having a storehouse of seeds
for the future. It’s always better to have a large supply
of seeds available for withdrawal so in difficult times
life won’t be so bumpy.
Planting the seeds of kindness, love, friendship, respect,
tolerance will get you more than you expect. Eliminating
expectations about what you receive often allows for a
larger return on the seeds you planted. Now that spring is
here begin looking within to see what weeds need to be
excavated and begin planting beautiful flowers.
