Sowing Seeds

Some of you may have wondered why I've been so inactive, others may think the holiday season is to blame. But the truth of the matter is that my life got run over by a tempest. Now, I won't share my story with you, but I will share some of the resolutions that birthed from my tumultuous end of year, but in poetic verse:

Seek change within
validate yourself
strive for selfishness
encourage happiness

Seek change without
listen better
advise less
encourage happiness

Seek change together
voice worries and complaints
blame less
encourage happiness

Seek change apart
spend more time with others
forge fulfilling friendships
encourage happiness

Seek change for growth
alter subduing patterns
fatten bank rolls
encourage happiness

Seek change for brood
play more often in woods
gain knowledge through exploration
encourage happiness

Seek the better good
allow seeds planted after the storm
to sprout
to blossom
to fruit
then harvest a new crop
of strange but nourishing food
grown on our renovated homestead
come tooth and nail
encourage happiness

HERE'S TO A BETTER YEAR FOR ALL!
