Let Yourself be a Garden

Yesterday, was an extremely hungry day for the soul.

I missed YOU with every fibre of my being, yet it had to stay silently contained, hidden from the rest of the world, amidst laughs, jokes and intense discussions. I have to work so hard, at being distracted nowadays. Am piling daily activities like logs into flame, to keep the fires of distraction burning.

So that I don't notice how chilling the days and nights are, without you. :(

It's hard,...and getting harder. And I'm uncertain, how long this winding road is and whether it ends anywhere. :(


Busy day ahead. But will leave everyone with some gems from Coelho, just to reflect on, on this serene Monday morning:

"In his or her life,
Each person can take one of two attitudes;
to build or to plant.

Builders may take years over their tasks,
but one day they will finish what they're doing.
Then they will stop, hemmed in by their own walls.
Life becomes meaningless
once the building is finished.

Those who plant suffer the storms
and the seasons and rarely rest.
Unlike a building, a garden never stops growing.
And by its constant demands
on the gardener's attentions,
it makes the gardener's life a great adventure"


And another one:

"We have a tendency
to see things that do not exist
and to be blind to the great lessons
that are right there before our eyes"


And another:

"Your heart is where your treasure is,
and you must find your treasure
in order to make sense of everything"


And one last one:

"When you travel towards your objective,
be sure to pay attention to the path.
The path teaches us the best way to arrive
and enriches us, while we're travelling along it"


May today be an inspiring Monday for all. God bless!
