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.

The End of Affirmation 365

I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
