Growing A Healthy Garden

What am i planing in my life today? What kinds of thoughts am i allowing to run loose in my mind, taking up valuable space, time and effort? And if I'm allowing negative thoughts to be predominant thoughts of today, just what kind of reality am I creating for myself?

Gardner's know that if they plant seeds for dandelions, they aren't going to grow roses. But they also know that if they plant seeds for rosebushes, they have to maintain a healthy environment for them to grow in. They have to maintain a constant vigil, getting rid of weeds that steal the water and add nutrients to the soil that will help the desired bushes to grow.

Our thoughts are very similar. First, we have to plant the seeds for a positive life by focusing on positive elements of life, on positive possibility and potential. Then we need to maintain a positive, healthy environment for those thoughts to grow and develop, getting rid of the "weeds" of negative thoughts and ideas as soon as they present themselves. It's not always easy, but it also isn't as difficult as some make it seem...it takes effort and time, but it's always possible.
