Weeding th garden

The weeds slow the growth of a beautiful garden. But if you find them ugly and unappealing and choose to bury them beneath the struggling garden and refuse to pull them, to remove them, there's only so much growth that the little garden will ever experience. You could even kill everything that could've been beautiful. 

 

To pull the weeds from the garden takes getting dirty. The grit and the grime dig underneath your nails! Your knees feel weak and worn, you get all messy and some of the roots find themselves attached to the weeds and give some struggle to the weeding. 

 

What looks easier to ignore compounds the situation and the weeds only get thicker until they are easily seen from a distance as well as up close. 

 

The beautiful flowers that once grew no longer bring beauty. All of the work you put in to create a beautiful garden is now lost because getting dirty is easier to avoid. 

 

Of course you can choose to never plant gardens. You can choose to avoid the struggle bus sacrificing beauty. You can choose to avoid the struggle by never maintaining the growth to see the end results of a beautiful garden. 

 

This reflects our lives in so many ways. Will you plant, avoid completely, or will you plant then ignore losing out on all that you imagined there. If you have planted and you took the easy way out, the garden may take a little more of your efforts to bring it back to life. Don’t give up on your garden no matter how long ago it was that you had the dream, no matter how long ago you dreamed, no matter how long ago the planting was. If there is over growth start digging now. There is still a beautiful garden that wants to grow! #Moniemoments
