Today as I began the to do list and reviewed recent circumstances which I now choose to call new opportunities I realized I have two choices, I can be a log or a growing tree?
As I pondered the two and their impact on the world I realized I choose to be the growing tree however I have log moments. As a log we sit and do nothing except give a place for mold, fungus and bugs to grow and thrive. A log day is an opportunity day, as opportunities happen around me I must choose to stretch my roots and dig into the rich soil for nourishment, searching for water and receiving all I can absorb. The key to this is choosing to take the opportunity and seek out the positive aspect to it, no matter how small it may be, find it, embrace it and nurture it.
I see it now coming to life, my growing tree is full of beautiful leaves in shades of green providing shade to passers by and homes for the Robin's nests. What a glorious picture!
I choose today to be a Growing Tree! What do you choose?
