It’s harvest time in Northern California! Grapes, orchards, vegetables, olives, flowers … the culmination of a season of growth and nurturing has come to fruition. What an abundant time of year and the perfect metaphor for harvesting the fruit of our personal growth. It’s time to turn our intentions and hard work into something worth savoring.
Like planting a seed with the desired outcome of a luscious tomato, our dreams start with a seed or an idea – and that idea is nurtured by our thoughts – and our thoughts form the fruit that is our intention – and our intentions produce an outcome … the harvest.
We nurture or manifest our thoughts and dreams with our intentions, and so it is imperative that we think about the optimum desired outcome. And it is paramount that we think positively so that we can harvest a healthy, vibrant, luscious dream. In short, you reap what you sow. So, think happy thoughts and turn those thoughts into intentions – and put them into action to get your desired outcome.
And like a fine wine, some thoughts take time to ferment and age and are enjoyed after years of nurturing and labor. Or, like a ripe apple off the tree, some thoughts are crisp and juicy and meant to be experienced immediately – when they are ripe for the pickin’.
To quote an old adage, “you are what you eat” … which also translates to “you are what you think”. So, keep it positive, be kind and nurturing … and allow the light to shine through and grow your dreams into your reality!
