An idea, the glimmer of hope

One thing I’ve come to notice about myself is when I say something out loud 😳 it makes it become more real 🌱 And what I’ve come to find is, when we say something out loud we give an idea its power! 

A thought in our minds is just a thought. A glimmer of hope. Which if we’re being completely honest that is the is step 1 on the path.

Step 2, writing the though down plants the seed.  A great friend told me when you write down a thought from your mind put it on paper, it first has to pass thought your heart. I believe that so much because when I journal my feelings, i connect with them and as a form a therapeutic release.

This emotional connection gets your body involved in your ideas reaching around. It’s not just a dream anymore, you’ve given your idea breath. Life!

And just like that your idea has been planted 🌱 And what do planted seeds become? Well, in my vision they grow into beautiful flowers.🌸 

You know, we ourselves, each of us are beautiful flowers.

We are children of this earth and meant to grow and flourish. Actually that is the goal of all living things. From seed, turn into a plant, gain nourishment from the earth, spread out your wings and spread your seeds around so other beautiful plants can grow too.

Steps 3,4,5..... well, that is in your power to decide what you do. You are in control of your destiny. When you plant a garden what do you typically do? Step 3 nourish your seeding, give it proper nutrients, sunlight and water. Then step 4 - make sure the soil is free of weeds . Weeds are the counterpart of seeds. They can mistaken themselves as flowers yet, their intentions are just to overtake the ground and grow when you won’t want it too. Step 5- And this might be most important, you have yo give your idea love and attention. Leaving your idea to get too dry will harm it. Not weeding can suffocate your intentions. Checking on your idea frequently to make sure it is growing well. Until one day, your once small little dream, your whisper of a thought, is fully grown and flourishing! Casting its beauty onto the world.
