Create Your Reality: Planting a Garden of Possibilities

Let us embark on a journey inward, to the place where ideas and dreams are seeded. These are created first by the mind and then with conscious intention. For anything to become a reality in your personal life, you must first know it as a possibility. Then among the myriad of possibilities, you may choose those you would like to incorporate into your life.

To express this point further, we will use the analogy of a garden. In order to create a garden, you must first have a basic idea of what a garden is. Gardens are of human creation, Nature does not plant gardens, unless you look at the entire surface of the earth as one garden.

You have decided you would like to create a garden in your space. What do you want to put into your garden: fruits, vegetables, herbs, flowers? How will you decide what to put in your garden: see what others are growing, deciding what foods you like to eat, browsing seed catalogs? 

After you have chosen what you would like to grow, it is time to choose the seeds you will plant. You will also need to know what steps are necessary to allow these seeds to grow and mature. This includes information such as soil temperature, irrigation needs, sunlight and fertilizer.

Creating anything in your life follows the same pattern. It is up to you to choose which seeds to plant and the amount of nurturance or attention you will give those seeds. Do you understand the implications? The fulfillment of your goals and dreams are in your hands. You choose the experience and decide how much nurturance you will give it.

Choose one thing you would like to experience in your life. This could be to find solutions to a problem, more abundance (which doesn’t always mean money), or perhaps a change in your behavior. I will state here that you do not have the power nor the authority to ask any other person to change their behavior, it is against the law of free will.

Perhaps you have a habit of talking about people behind their back. You know that gossip is not good and you have suffered when others find out what you have said about them. (They always will know, even if it is solely on an intuition level.)

How can you to change your behavior? You have chosen the seed: eliminate gossip. You must now choose how much nurturance and attention you want to give this seed and bring it to maturation.

Look at the reasons why you gossip. In most cases, it goes back to belief codes related to low self-esteem. This may be your real issue. Like stacked dominoes, if you break the pattern of the original code, other behaviors will no longer be appropriate or needed and will simply fall away.

For this exercise, you may want to look at one specific person that you tend to gossip about on a regular basis. In your mind, find your commonalities with this person. You both are human, having the same primal needs of food, shelter and clothing. You both have fears, strengths and weaknesses. Go beyond the physical self and recognize that each of you is a spiritual being, coming from the same Creator. Recognize that there is no other person on earth who has all of the same opinions and beliefs that you have. Variety creates interest in interacting with other beings, so do your really want everyone to be the same as you? Finding commonalities with those who annoy you may take some practice, but well worth the effort if compassion and unconditional love are your goals.

Many times, when you set aside your judgments and opinions and truly tap into Unity with another, you will understand why this person “pushes your buttons” and why this person is a rung to help you climb your “self-esteem” ladder. You may find that your adversaries become your greatest teachers in helping you overcome your weaknesses.

Having a thorough understanding of One with all other living forms on earth will help you break through many belief codes and undesirable habits. Take time each day to sit by a tree, a flower, insects or an animal and focus on their energy. It may take many attempts, but at some point, you will experience a connection on a deep and indescribable level.

Choose your seeds of possibilities, nurture them and watch as your dreams unfold magically!
