There is another saying among farmers here:
"there is no better fertilizer than a farmer's footprints." To me this means that which is planted must be revisited often. The garden must be nurtured and tended. It must be cared for with love. It seems to me that this applies to our lives as well. Hopes and dreams and aspirations must be revisited often lest we loose sight of the things that are really important to us. Commitments must be tended to as carefully as any garden plot. While there are no guarantees as with gardening, there is faith. And today is a beautiful day.
