The garden of life

One night I had a dream I was walking upon a valley and off in the distance there was a garden.
As I came near to it I saw its bounty of many varieties of fruit and vegetables ripe for the picking.

Next to the veggie garden was a thicket of weeds and thistles and briars and next to that a patch of flowers of all kinds of beauty.

As I pondered why were they divided by weeds and thistles I could not understand why anyone would grow such an array.

Then a voice from the clouds said unto me "oh foolish man what do you not understand? Is it not clear what you see?"
I cried out to the voice "No I honestly do not know why anyone would let weeds grow between such a lovely garden."

The voice in the cloud said, " Son of man open your mind and eyes. You see the bounty of veggies and they look ripe for the picking for they are the food of thought and dreams of many in the garden of life but, as full and ripe they may seem, there is barrier of weeds and thistles that must be cleaned out to bridge the gap to reach the flowers of beauty.
Yet, there is no one willing to tend to the weeding
As the hope of reaching to the flowers of beauty and the veggies which feed those who hunger for knowledge and understanding there is much work to be done to clear out all the negativity in the hearts of the laborers.
As I the lord above the clouds can provide all the light and water to nourish the ground, I give life to everyone who seeks it.
Hence, all I ask is to clear out that which is blocking the veggies and flowers so they can bridge one another and share the bounty of love and life they so desperately need.
In time with proper nurturing, you will reap the bounty and benefits of the garden of life before you.
Seek it's truth and do not be discouraged for the garden will feed you what you need.

Thank you for posting this blog, it was exactly what I needed to read even though I'm not religious, but not atheist either. teddybear peace The flower garden needs water to survive and that's what I'm working on.

Many weeds and thistles are medicines if you are a wild crafter.You only harvest one seventh of the bounty,and must understand pod,bloom, bud,seed root and leaf are differing in potency.Many are also high potency vitamins.thumbs up
I will toil with you,it is a labor of love.teddybear
You are right Ash, the difference between a flower and a weed is human opinion. hug
There are many flowers here each to her own beauty and scent and yet, the weeds and thistles that clutter the way to embrace them are barriers they build to keep the harvester from entering their domain. The veggies are the bums who sit on their rump vegging out their minds on stupidity trying to impress the flowers.
Until both the veggies and flowers learn they need each other and need to work together to clear the weeds that clutter our hearts and minds the greater the barrier becomes.
The Voice in the clouds.... knows their purpose and provided them to.

Now if we would quit messing
with 'em,genetically.
It's called "companion cropping."

Aaawww.Thats very good news!
.thumbs up
I agree with Ash...thumbs up

A weed to someone can be a useful medicine plant to someone else.

There are many "weeds" near where I live and most people don't know what they are.

For example...I've fed the horses with some...I've made infusions with dandelions ....I've also used stinging nettles for purification. Etc..
Flowers have to be nurtured.
Just as flowers in our gardens people need nurturing also.
