The Gardener

We all have that secret garden – the one that we tend to and perhaps sometimes we don’t allow other within.

 

Sure there is the fence and every day we tend to that garden and we make it the best that we can. Yet there is that wall that is all around the garden and we keep the door up and yet at the same time – now and then we will allow it to be open.

 

 

Why is it that we do this? It could very well be due to previous situations that have occurred within our life such as divorce or other wise. However within it all the garden does give one some substantial meaning as we are apart of creating something and within that everything that we do within every day has some meaning. Some will have days that are not that great and then there are some are perfect.

 

Ironically one day the gardener allowed that doorway to be open and what came about was someone that stepped inside.

 

This of course was to the gardeners surprise as there came about something as for years that door stayed closed. After a period of time, the gardener found that there was more things to just gardening and enjoyed the new things that unveiled. Certainly the garden was something that was never left go but other things came about.

 

 

The merit of the story is that the gardener found another level of actualization within what was abundant. For the gardener was never alone yet there was more than just the garden. I think that is something that we all can relate to in some fashion.  One can’t come from shortage, nor from scarcity or from wanting. The attributes the define us is what allows us everything within our own way.
