In the weeds
August '07 Filed in: Farm
It's raining tonight in Deansboro. Yesterday I weeded the tomatoes which were sorely overgrown. A combination of bad weather and neglect conspired to nearly bury them in quack grass. As the weeds yielded, I was surprised to see how dry the soil was at the tomato roots. Thank goodness the ground is clear and the water can now reach the roots.
Life is a little like that. Without constant tending the "weeds" in our life can take over and crown out what really is important. Make sure you take a little time today, and every day, to clear out the unwanted distractions that are robbing you of the energy you need to fulfill your destiny.
