In his or her life each person can take one of two attitudes, to build or to plant.

Builders may take years over their tasks, but one day they will finish what they are doing.

Then they will stop, hemmed in by their own walls. Life becomes meaningless once the building is finished.

Those who plant suffer the storms and the seasons and rarely rest.

Unlike a building, a garden never stops growing.

And by its constant demands on the gardener’s attentions, it makes of the gardener’s life a great adventure.

From Brida by Paulo Coelho.

Hmmm…well said.

On the path of life, when doubt occasionally raises its head, remember who you are and just keep on walking.

A MOMENT OF REFLECTION: Have you found yourself wondering if, perhaps, there is more you could be doing? Something more meaningful and engaging? Or closer to the point, something that more reflects who YOU have grown into over the years? Need some help getting there? Perhaps I could be of assistance.
