Potential
I love my garden. I love organising what to plant and I love watching the plants grow. Last year we got rid of some trees from our garden. What surprised us was that some poppies came up in their place and they grew so big.
Once they died we got millions of seeds from them and we packaged them up and gave them to friends for Christmas. If we hadn’t got rid of those trees we would never have known that the poppies were even there.
Those trees were stopping the poppies from growing and reaching their full potential. How often do we do that?
I know for me, my feelings, emotions and doubts are those trees and they are stopping me reaching my full potential.
- It’s good to reflect on what in our life is masking the good and how those good things can often go on to help others.
