”Moments”
There is plenty of pain and suffering and crappiness in this world… no need to seek that out! It WILL find you… but there ARE also MOMENTS… moments of peace or laughter or beauty or connection or rebirth or whatever… moments that leave you feeling the World is ok. I am ok. We will be ok! Today I finish transplanting my seedlings… Today… at THIS MOMENT… I feel GOOD. I hope you have some such moments today and this weekend also!
Your little seedlings are GROWING! They seem to be thriving…keeping plants alive is no easy task! It takes daily nurturing and observation, and it seems many humans don’t want to sacrifice their precious time.
I think it’s important that humans practice or experience kindness/caring/nurturing behaviors. There is something important to the soul in caring practices…it could be in keeping plants alive, creating a meal, or just truly appreciating something like art or nature. Taking time to notice, appreciate, or give…I wish this for all!
Ahh man, Betsy! I thought I had made a good post this week, but it seems as though your response is the real star… I think you captured, in a very meaningful way, an important and vital aspect of what I was trying to express in my post! For me personally, I look forward to “seedling planting and nurturing” ALL YEAR! Without a doubt, it is one of my very favorite activities, and I think you captured the essence of this in your words… thank you for commenting… and I also wish this for all!
