Harvest time is upon us as we reap from our gardens what we have sown. It’s wonderful to see something that you planted from a tiny seed that grows and matures to a full-grown crop.
And haven’t you ever just stopped to think for a moment about those seeds. Just how miraculous they are. Each seed so tiny, yet they know exactly how to grow. Each tiny cell splitting off to become a leaf, petal or fruit. Just as our human cells know which cells form toes and teeth.
Each plant perhaps relying on natures helping hand as the bees pollinate creating new seeds for next year’s seasons

Apples all 5 of them Smiles
I have so enjoyed this Summer. It started out life here in the UK as being one of the wettest June’s for a long while. It was very cool to start with. Yet despite the cold start Nature catches up. And even though our sweetcorn took 3 attempts to sow this year it too caught up and now we are harvesting the ripe corn cobs
Life is a little like planting. We get to harvest what we have sown.
I came across a wonderful post from Erika today whose own post was about the seeds we sow in Life.. in her post here entitled The Challenge of Growth
How true too about those seeds as Erika describes them to break down and collapse before they open and bring forth their new growth. I invite you to go read her excellent thoughts on how we ourselves grow through our challenges.
Corn gone to seed Not all can mature perfectly.
As I view the world today I see many of our old ways now collapsing, they have to if we are to change.
Everything comes in cycles, Day follows Night, Seasons Change. We look back through history and see how our world has gone through its different ages. It seems we are now in the technological age. One at the moment I seem to in conflict with, big smiles as it seems me and technology are not getting on as well of late.
Not everything in our garden’s can be rosy all the time and in full bloom. But with Love and attention to what is important in our lives as we give our attention to the things which matter. We then reap that which we sow
Begonias in tubs large and small in our front garden.
I ask myself why is that me and techology seem in conflict right now – Could it be the Universe is wanting my attention elsewhere? I have got much thinking to do at the moment and choices to make. But I know what ever choice I make, it will be Ok, for there are no right or wrong roads, for all roads lead us to our destinations. It’s just sometimes we can detour off the path and for some they can become lost amid the jungle of choices that in this digital age can distract us from the true seeds we need to sow. Which often are the most basic.
To Care and Share.
We may have forgotten some of the things that really matter in our lives. As the distractions of this material world have never been greater as they grab our attention and steel our energies and lower our vibrations.
I invite all of you who may be feeling of a low ebb and stressed out with the world right now to reconnect with your inner seed. The one that beats life into you day in and day out. Go into the HEART of Nature and start to listen to your own Heart.
It is patiently waiting for you to understand that all you need do for it to grow and expand to the Light, is for you to nurture it with the best nutrient ever given to man.
LOVE!
Smiling among the Dahlia’s.
Sending you huge armfuls of flowers filled with love and gratitude..
