So I went to my church's retreat center here in Michigan for the annual "Flowerfest." It is a time when we, volunteers, take time to revamp the gardens around the retreat center grounds.
There were fewer of us this year than in recent years, but we were still able to get the work done that's needed to spruce up the looks of the retreat center. It was hot and there were many weeds to pull and several new plants to put in the ground. This year was special because new trees were being planted because some of the older trees had a disease and needed to be removed last fall.
This time of weeding and planting reminds me of my spiritual journey. My colleague says that when we heal...we are getting to the root of the issue. We are weeding our subconscious mind so that we can become well...healthy. It's time to become our higher self...let's move forward. So as I worked in my garden, I thought about the issues that are current in my life and how I am ready to heal and move forward. What are your weeds? Can you recognize them right away? What is "choking" your growth? Just wondering.
Enjoying the sunshine,
Jenn
