It Starts with a Seed...

I found this beautiful piece in the summer issue of Magnolia magazine on Flourish. It reminded me of the spirit of summer, to nurture ourselves. 

As summer vacations and travel begin, this year in particular after not traveling for two years, people are running to other parts of the country for vacations, reunions and self-nurture and growing relationships.
​
I trust you will enjoy the words and essence of the article as much as I have.   

“You’re like the seed from which a plant grows: almost everything you need to be fully who you are is already inside of you-waiting for the things that nurture you, the things that bring you to life. 
​Somewhere, in some corner of the world, sits a seed. Maybe it’s tucked in the pocket of last season’s chore coat or disregarded in the bottom of an otherwise empty hardware store packet or dropped and left alone on the floor of a garden shed. 
Wherever it is, it sits there containing within it almost all of the necessary pieces to grow, to burst out of the ground into the beautiful plant it was made to be. 
But it will need nurture. 
To be planted in good soil. To be given water. Sunshine. Shade. 
Then time to wait and watch as what’s always been becomes the fullness of what it was made to be. 
And somewhere, in some corner of the world, sits you. 
Maybe you’re on a park bench getting ready to make your next move or at your kitchen table after a hard conversation or in front of your computer with minutes and hours and days of work left to do. 
Wherever you are, you sit there containing within you almost all the necessary pieces to grow, to burst forth into the beautiful person you were made to be. 
You will need nurture. 
To be put in places that make you come alive. 
To be given space to sort it all out. 
Tools to learn and grow and be. Then time to wait and watch as what you’ve always been becomes the full ness of who you were made to be.” -Author unknown, Magnolia Magazine
  
Thanks to Joanna Gaines for all of the little details in the magazine that make this a favorite nurturing and inspiring read.  Enjoy your nurturing summer.

From my heart to yours,
Hilda
