Gardening the Mind—Forming New Mental Habits

          

 

As I look at my garden I see large weeds of disturbing attitudes with the small sprouts of wisdom, peace and compassion. Oh…

 

I ask myself, what seeds have I been planting? What recent nutrients have I been feeding my life—my garden? Have I fallen into a chronic pattern? Oops…

 

How do the nutrients affect the attitude sprouts?

 

So I try to just be aware without judgment. Gee, what is growing?

 

Peaceful, calm, accepting thoughts? Cranky, frustrated, angry thoughts?

 

Can I see any changes that I want to make?

 

 

Take delight in the fact that you have enough sanity

and awareness to notice insanity!

 

 Progress, not perfection.

Easy does it—but do it!
