Nature Lessons 103

Like a rose, each one of us is different. We grow in different ways, from different soil and experience.  The choices we make are based on our own interpretation of life, how we see and experience the things around us. Growth is affected by experience and understanding of life events and the individual challenges we face. Each of us has magnificent potential and each of us is beautiful, we just grow in our own way, in our own time.

Nature Lessons 102

Not everything in life is grand, not everything that is of value needs to cost a fortune.  A beautiful life is made up of small moments, precious moments, like those spent with friends and family. These are the treasures to hold onto, the treasures that will last a lifetime.

Nature Lessons 101

We all view things slightly differently depending on our involvement and personal opinion. Sometimes our view is dependent on where we stand in a room, our personal experiences and what we see and hear.  It is good to bare this in mind when considering the views of others and remain open to the fact that we might not know everything. There is always something new to learn in life.

Nature Lessons 99

If we stop and take a good look at ourselves, peal back those layers like the petals of a flower, we will find the true self.  The self that is at the heart of each of us, that which is full of love and forgiveness, that which does not judge and simply knows us in truth.  Think about those layers, can you allow any of them to fall away, can you find your heart centre?

The pathway of a the flower is clear, from bud, to full bloom to decay.  The flower continues to grow, moving through all these stages of her life in absolute beauty.   Does the flower already know her path, is she connected to the eternal source when she reaches up to the brightness of the sun, is her life just a small part of her journey home.  Be the flower in life, accept and relish each moment for what it is, knowing that it is all part of the eternal journey.

Nature Lessons 95

Some days it’s okay to give in and admit you might a little broken or weary.  It might be you are sad, tired, sick, or just not able to be as strong as you usually can.  It is quite natural to take time out, look at the tree or a flower after a storm.  Life knocks us about sometimes, we need to take care of ourselves, acknowledge our feelings, cry if we need to and give ourselves time to mend. Like the flower with its head bent, be good to yourself today, knowing you will lift your head  again tomorrow.
