Lessons from the Garden: July 2019 – Change Your View

/ Lessons from the Garden / By

Sometimes I get upset with myself, judge myself, blame myself for how horrible I am or how much I am not doing what I am suppose to be doing. In this case getting angry because I am neglecting my garden.

But, perhaps what is viewed as neglect from my angle was simply freedom and much needed time from the angle of the beans. Seems in my absence they have done exceedingly well.

My perspective is not always the right one and there are many vantage points to every scenario.

I do not have to jump immediately to self judgement and blame.

I can simply look around and change my view whenever I please.
