As I turned on the computer this morning
before I turn it back off.....
I read something I needed to read.
I confess - that at times it is difficult
concentrating on the positive.
If your out watering your flower garden by hand, you usually concentrate the flow of water
to benefit your beautiful flowers. If there is an area of weeds, you don't waste water on them.
As best you can, you avoid watering the weeds.
It's the same with your consciousness. You can learn to selectively water positive seeds and
flowers in you by attending to these.
There are enough weeds.
You do not have to encourage them.

Great words! There is so much negativity all around and it can easily bring us to a place we would rather not be. Positive posts, words, pictures do much for our hearts and souls.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this reminder to water the positive.
Have a lovely Easter.
