Pure Possibilities
While the land sleeps the gardener plans.
Happy Monday,
February has arrived and will give us the gift of an extra day to leap over this year. What will you do with those extra 24 hours?
I came across today’s featured quote in my journey’s last week as I began my planning for my 2024 gardening adventures. With it came the reminder that anything is possible if we put our heart, mind, and first waking hours into taking action towards what we want to see happen. Most especially in the early morning hours of a given day as so many in the rest of the world sleep.
As I have shared in this letter over the years, I love the idea of how morning creates a time when the purest of possibilities can come to light. With that in mind, I wrote today’s poem. Words to remind us of all the power we actually have at the start of each day if we choose to embrace those pure possibilities, we each have in front of us.
Pure Possibilities
With possibilities there is wonder of what could potentially be,
With the many powers of the universe coming together inside of me.
Holding the early morning light within the power can at moments seem immense,
It is here, I can let go of doubt and the varied elements that could be making me tense.
My thoughts during my waking hour can guide my climb on this very day,
Not allowing anyone, any assumptions, or anything else, to get in my way.
Every morning I get this opportunity to start again,
It’s up to me to be ready to cultivate what I can, as I begin.
Taking the seeds from a myriad of ideas to prepare them to grow,
Allowing the magic within me to illuminate my life as I sow.
Never before and never again,
Will this space in time be mine to win.
To win is to give all my pure possibilities loving grace,
Knowing what I put before me I can fully embrace.
With excitement I move into this new day knowing what can be,
Feeling fully alive, to make happen what’s most important, in all that I see.
I want to invite you to a You Tube Live I am hosting tomorrow. I will be sharing a book chat with the book The Well-Gardened Mind at 12 noon mst if you want to share your lunch hour with me. This book is a true delight in sharing the power that our outdoor world holds for each of us. Simply subscribe to my You Tube channel (no cost) and you will be notified when I go live.
And as the garden sleeps for the next few month for those of us in colder climates, now is a terrific time to be planning. Whatever your garden looks like for you, big or small, inside or out.
With this I wish you a most awesome day ahead. Here’s to a month full of possibilities ahead!
Happiness and enlightenment is job #1.
Let’s get out there and get this journey rolling! What do you say?
