How green is your grass?

You may think the grass is greener on the other side.  But if you take the time to water your own grass it would be just as green.  Unknown

Oh I like today's quote.  A lot.  Why it has never occurred to me in this way I don't know, but I sure am glad I am thinking about it now.
We are a lazy bunch aren't we?  We want the green grass but we don't want to put the work in to keep it green.  But the only way to keep it healthy and green is to put the work in.
Sometimes our grass has got crabgrass and weeds.  Take a careful look, is it because of your neglect?  Or is it because the soil wasn't nutrient rich to begin with?  If it's because of your neglect own up and do what it takes to remove it.  If it is because of depleted soil then you may need to move.
Sometimes our grass is getting brown and dried up.  Take a careful look, is it because of your neglect?  Or is it because the heat is relentless through no fault of your own?  If it's because of your neglect own up and do what needs to be done to revive the moisture.  If it's because of the heat caused by external circumstances then you may need to move.
To upkeep grass takes a lot of work and patience.  Our careful care to keep free of weeds and crabgrass and our patience in watering it will pay off in the long run.

Critics don't even buy the "at least they are doing something" statement.  However, you have to start somewhere. And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play. Read a Road Map Day One of the many reasons I would stink at The Amazing Race is because I never did learn how to read a road map well.  I remember doing worksheets and class lessons on maps and I was able to skate by to pa
