What does living your best life look like?
For me it has something to do with learning how to have balance in my life. As I navigate all the daily tasks, relationships I try to remember to make sure I am “on the list”, and not “just focused on geting everything “done”, but being more mindful of “being”, not just “doing”.
After all, we are human “beings” not human “doings”.
I am noticing how so many lessons about what “balance” means, are there in the garden.
One thing I observe is that the garden does really well when I can do regular maintenance and take the time to observe and muse over it’s ever changing scape. It’s a host for a myrid of relationships and connections in a kind of symphony.
Sometimes things don’t look so good in the moment, but then on the next visit, what I thought was a problem has worked itself out. This has helped me to be patient and not be so quick to try and do something to correct something that actually do better without my interference.
So part of the balancing process is the experience of some so called “imbalance”. Just staying open and flexible can bring many new fresh insights into many situations.
I have noticed that also in the “garden of life”, regular maintenance and intentional routine self care and observation is a great practice to have.
For me, the garden has been a great example of how to live my best life!
