Reflecting...

 


Regarding the way we think or what we feel?

Is it up for debate?

There's a quiet truth in the hums beneath everyday life.



 That each one of us has a mind molded by our own seasons- like the way we were raised, and how we survived, the people we love and loved, the faith that steadies us, and even the soil we've tended. No two pairs of hands touch the world the same way, so why would our thoughts come out matching?

We're allowed our own opinions. Not because we're stubborn or set in our ways, but because we're human, and we also have the right to choose. Our thoughts, opinions, and the way we respond are our soul's fingerprint-Uniquely ours, shaped by memory and meaning, and there's no honest living without it. 

Having an opinion doesn't mean we are shouting down the world, refusing to listen. It just means having a bit of a backbone and saying, "This is what my life has taught me." People may agree or disagree or even wander somewhere in between-that's the whole dance.
A healthy world needs harmony, old wisdom, and bold new ideas. This doesn't mean to come against you. We don't have to twist ourselves into knots to match anyone else's thinking, and we don't have to demand that it match ours. It's like what I mentioned before, "The It is what it is mentality. 

Respect is the bridge, and the opinion is the traveler. So hold your views with both conviction and humility. Be ready to speak them, be prepared to question them, and be ready to let them grow, but don't let anyone tell you that your lived experiences don't earn you a voice. It definitely does.

 Reflections Every season starts with a first seed in the soil.  This blog is mine. I don't know yet what it will grow into- stories,  reflections , maybe a little advice from the garden and kitchen-but I do know it will be honest. You've found your way here, welcome. Let's see where this path takes us." Today, however, I would like to talk about; "Why Do Men feel the need to respond with, ' Now you're going to accuse me?" By the way, it only screams, "You're Guilty" So, is it because they're guilty from the start, and this is their way of confessing, but...? Or is it because they're unsure of what you  might say to them, which immediately raises  red flags  for me? It's like telling a little child, ' Guess what? You're telling on your own. ' Are you taking accountability? And this is where the but... comes into play... At this point, men will come up with every type of scenario and a little bit of confusion...

E's Gardening 101...

The Start of a Beginning...Year of 2022 "Gardening"                                                This statement means everything. " The older the wiser ". It's not until you're a little older that you really start to understand the meaning of life and living. My role models in my life were my grandparents . The inspirations behind the decisions I would make when it came to running my household . My love for nature, planting, and growing many kinds of vegetables and flowers. There's a particular kind of peace that comes from stepping outside, hearing the quiet rustle of leaves, and knowing you grew something with your own two hands. It's an old-fashioned comfort, the kind our grandparents didn't question-they just knew. And honestly?
