The Garden’s Reminders

I Love the little reminders that the garden gives me. Small insights that I can apply to my life. This chilly morning as I walked around the gardens I noticed that despite my lack of management, the beauty has continued on without me, things are growing, putting out new shoots, like arms outstretched, reaching to the sun.

The metaphor is not lost on me. It’s ok to let go. It’s fine to release others to grow and bloom without my constant care. Just as my garden is cared for by a creator greater than its earthly tendee, so my loved ones are cherished and tended to by a higher power whose love for them is greater than I can think or comprehend. It’s okay to let go. Despite the absence of the queen of the universe, the gardens in my life will find their own way.
