Hello friends š¤
I donāt know if others experience times like this but in recent weeks, I feel like Iāve been much more in touch with my higher-self with random ideas (solutions) that just enter my thoughts, seemingly from out of nowhereā¦ what I mean to say - well, I find it hard to express these sorts of things so I like to use examples to explain my thoughts.
Iām guessing that everyone has those insignificant āissuesā and problem areas that always need solving around the house and garden. You look at them for months on end, wondering āwhat can I do?ā and you keep coming up blank.
Sometimes itās a lack of inspiration, sometimes itās purely a lack of motivation and sometimes itās that annoying voice in the back of your mind that disregards ALL your ideas as a ātotal waste of time and energyā..!!!
But then sometimes, itās like a light shines down from the heavens and not only fills you with ideas and answers but also charges you with the energy and motivation (courage?) needed to complete the task at hand.
Yesterday was one of those days for me - I have an over-grown front yard that desperately needs cutting. And YES, I know this sounds like a really girly-excuse but I couldnāt undo (and change) the head attachment for my whipper-snipper (grass-trimmer), therefore, power tools were off the menu.
At first, I contemplated giving it all the once over with some hedge shears but that seemed '...a little crazy...' so, I did the next best thing and proceeded to dig up the lawn creating a new garden bed that will run along the front wall of the house. This will also provide some much-needed shade and a new space where I can plant more 'shade-loving' plants.
To start with, Iāve just filled the area with lots of succulent cuttings from the garden, but as you can see, within a few hours I was able to stand back and with a sense of accomplishment, admire the first half of my new garden - solving a problem that Iād been staring at for months.
AND Iām still wondering where the ideas and energy came from.
There are lots of other things Iāve noticed over the weeks (and lots of new plans being made) that I wonāt go into too much other than to say that Iāve also had trouble falling to sleep due to all the ārandomā ideas that keep bouncing around in my thoughts.
All I can say is that over recent weeks, it feels like my mind is āfiring on all pistonsā, hopefully I can maintain the pace while the motivation is high.
As always, I will keep you updated on the garden's progress - while I also predict there will be 'many more photos to come'. š¤·āā
Until next time... xxx
Be safe and stay sane... ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø
