Cultivating Growth, The Garden of Self
“Imagine a red lotus that had begun life underwater but grew and rose above the surface until it stood free.”
To navigate life with balance, we need to first cultivate ourselves. We often find ourselves cruising through life, caught up in it’s fury. Overwhelmed and oblivious, blissful or unmoved.
How often are we truly mindful of ourselves and our thoughts.
Of ourself as a person, the big picture and whole?
One minute we’re angry, the next we are sad. But who are we really? Just fleeting moods?
Without mindfulness, and a conscious effort on our behalf to understand ourselves and direct our thoughts, we remain submerged underwater at the whim of it’s currents.
Sell-Awareness is key: We are what we think. So think what we are.
Cultivate our thoughts like a garden, and they will reap the suns rays, grow tall and soon blossom.
A garden of good deeds, of speech and of thoughts.
