21.   GROWTH   
          liza  (Elizabeth Lucas Pinkney)  

 

Growth can be both terrifying and exciting.  We all want to grow, but with growth comes change.  This can cause hesitation and discomfort.  Life is metaphorically like a plant:  unless tended, the plant will grow out of control.  Is this happening to you?  Monitor the growth in your life.  Journal your experiences and see where change is needed.  You are the gardener of you own thicket.  Design, plant, till and prune your life’s garden, and be amazed.  A well tended garden will blossom and be beautiful.
