My Garden

I feel as though my yard, gardens, and trees reflect the state in which my life is at. These last two years have been rough but I managed to keep everything alive. The wear is apparent but the will to grow is still there. I am hoping that I will be able to make real improvements to my gardens and my soul in the coming months and years and hopefully be able to reflect renewed life in myself and well as my yard.

It has left me to ponder the state in which we see others. Are we quick to judge them based upon what we see from the outside, or do we look closer and see the soul, the underlying growth and potential they have. Do we tend and mend to them and try to find the cause of their wilted leaves, withering branches, diseases, and hurt? Do we mock those that would try to help repair the hurt?
I have seen it, I have done it, though I think that I tend to be more on the positive side and look for the best in others, I still find myself falling for the trap of judgement.
Well, I slap my hand right now, Knock it off I tell myself. Look for the good, reach out to those who are reaching to you. Nothing feels better.
