Water Your Garden


An Italian saying says that life is not all roses and flowers. Right. Even when the roses are there, thorns are there, too, so that a possible prick can be expected along with the nice scent and the beautiful colors. Even so often, though, it seems that our garden is and will remain barren, that our house or our affairs are and will continue being in disarray, that the weather channel will never forecast sunny days again. Fortunately this is not true. The sun will shine again because it is its nature, as everything in nature follows its course, with its steady - although slow - pace. As calm follows the storm, so flowers can blossom again and our house and affairs can be fixed. But there is one condition: we must be willing to make the effort, to DO something about it. Water the garden, go to the doctor, talk to an accountant, ask for advice, be more patient, listen more ..... Each of us has their personal tool at their disposal to put order in their lives, so let's not miss out on the opportunity to "re-create our lives", NOW.
