I think it's safe to assume, everyone knows to be able to enjoy the bounty and beauty of one's garden (be it floral or vegetable), the garden's surroundings need to be able to provide the right amount of sun and water, along with clean soil that allows the plants to take root. And let's not forget all the love, care, patience and hard work that we need to put into the garden.
Well, life is similar to a garden to enjoy its beauty and create abundance we need to ensure that our environment has all the key nutrients that will allow us to grow and evolve.
LET GO OF THE PAST &
THOSE WHO HOLD YOU DOWN...
Accept that there are things we can not change, the past is one of them. No matter what has caused a ripple or detour in your life's journey you need to release it, so that it doesn't hold you down from the wonderful life that is waiting to be lived!
Once you've released the fears, anger, pain (remember "Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself ) You are left with clean soil to start planting your new life!
Positive people are like the nutrients that enrich the soil, now that you have (clean soil) a fresh foundation for your life, it's time to nourish it.
Just like sun and rain work together with the nutrient rich soil, it's important to provide our body, soul and mind nourishment.
BE ACTIVE....
EAT HEALTHY ...
RESTORE BODY & MIND ...
FEED YOUR SOUL ...
This spring certainly has been an awaking of my garden of life! These past few weeks have been most challenging (physically, emotionally and mentally) for me. Realizing Admitting that I need to leave Saying Good-bye to the life and the me that no longer fit, so that I may truly and wholly embrace the life and me I'm creating ~ and Waiting to be lived!!!
Many of us already know this, but we can never be reminded enough that we need to nurture ourselves as much as we do others and things around us. Often the only thing or person holding us back is OUR SELF!
Are you giving your life the nutrients it needs to grow?
What have you done lately to get/maintain your environment,

Linking up with Spiritual Sunday
Dearest Celia,
ReplyDeleteThis is tough... But like all 'Growing Pains' we must go through them. Once we will reap the benefits and see the blossoms of what hard work yielded us.
Receive a very tight hug and enjoy your Sunday together.
Love,
Mariette
