Growth

I planted some seeds in the soil about Nov. 12th, shortly after we arrived here.

Daily watering and the heat of the sun soon had the seeds growing.  They grew quickly with little care.  But grow they did.  Was I growing at the rate they were?  I think not.  Perhaps I relaxed too much, but don’t recall any major growth spurts.  Sure I’ve gained a few physical pounds while here but what about intellectual growth??

The bud, the promise of things to come.

It is so easy to get into a routine that you follow day after day, reading, music, walking, visiting and so on….but is it enough.  What more could I do to promote inner growth?  Think back a year, are you in the same place now that you were then, doing the same things over and over?  Is that growth?  Won’t we shrivel up if we don’t push those grey cells?  It’s something I have more to think on…meanwhile I’m more than happy with the fullfillment of my packet of seeds.
