words of gardening wisdom for working a 4th step
Today as I was sitting in my lawn chair and watering my garden, I was fussing over how many weeds I missed. Some over there..some there..one right in front of me...and you all know those weeds were symbolic of my resentments...so it was really nagging at me that I had missed so many of them...
until..I dont know what caused me to look up...but I did. Instead of looking down, I looked up... and saw that one of my suflowers had finally bloomed... its not enough to just see part of your "inventory" sometimes you need to see all of it... or the best of it instead of the harshness of it... if we always look in one direction, we will never see the sunflowers...
