A tree or the mind of me?

Can you imagine being some other than what you are? Delivery mail for the mind. The mere thought of blossoming while the world burns around you seems impossible at times, something as simple as planting a tree, flower or herb you often have high expectations but things don’t always go to plan do they?

Birds could prey, storms could hit, hungry little creatures that roam in the night might creep up from a bite.

Humans view themselves as victims of circumstances with or without their knowledge. Carting traumatic memories around with little knowledge on how to heal. Yet there are hundreds, thousands even millions less fortunate than the one wallowing in self sorrow.

If a plant can grow in the desert, rains come after months on the brink of starvation, why is it we have fallen so ill in our minds.. become so self absorbed.. thinking of suicide.. mental health.. insecure and lost all these things we can escape from inside of us. But there are aspects of life in which you can guide, overcome, reach your goals and aspire to inspire threw the hardships you’ve endured. Your knowledge could save or inspire, like planting a tree in the mind to broaden certain focuses.

There’s always good in the bad, an even scale. Your numerology number, star sign and moon astrology sign. Can inform you of yourself in certain areas or in times where I personally need to feel guided.

They don’t teach you to love yourself in school, about the mental strains in high school and the impacts they can have in your life down the track. Or even the personal hardships one might having growing up. We need to stop telling people and start showing, give them examples from a child to adult you grow everyday constantly learning.

There’s no such thing as perfect, it’s okay to have your rough days even if they last months each journey unique and individual. Although you might be down, felling like there’s no escape or the complete opposite. Be humble, broaden your focus and learn something from each experience to take you threw.

By acknowledging your pains, personal traits, bad habits. Naturally the good will begin to follow or will be seen equally threw the process in which you learn about yourself and surroundings. You’ll never escape something you can’t let go of and until you find your natural healing process or foundations in which brings you down - by not acknowledging them for what they are makes it a repetitive process. You rise again after falling but will you constantly let the same things bring you down?

You have to want to change and be whole heartedly accepting of the help around you. Until you are you may feel like people don’t bother anymore or don’t care - but they care enough to show you enough is enough, some things you have to take responsibility for even if you can’t accept perhaps you are the reason your miserable in lacking efforts to do anything to have your life, mindset or career any different from where it currently stands.

A tree doesn’t choose where it stands ot happen naturally falling into its place some curve around different structures adapting to the things around them and using them to your advantage, only in a good way will this work. I’m on a wild soul searching journey and not everything I’ve come to learn about myself is exactly what it is.. for in someone else’s eyes and mind it will always be different. But being accepting of this is also a hard task at times, words or actions may irritate you but your reaction to something or someone is often can be portrayed 100 different ways in a crowd. I guess it’s the same with my tree for finding love in the little and natural things is something I was gifted, no materialistic manner can convince me to go against my morals. Find your strengths threw finding your weaknesses has been this months brain storm.
