When we pass a
garden and we see everything in full
bloom, we don't always think bout the
seeds that were planted long before we
got there. We simply enjoy the
beauty of the harvest. Our minds
work the very same way. It is the
law of expression that says that we must
ultimately express in form those
thoughts, emotions and impulses we store
in the subconscious mind. That
part of us does not think. It does
not reason, balance, judge or reject.
It is the fertile ground that accepts
any and everything we plant. Good
or evil, constructive or destructive,
our lives will bear the fruit of the
seeds we plant in our minds. If we
have no faith, purpose or belief in
ourselves, we cannot blame the world.
We plant the roses or weeds we see in
the garden. We can imagine good
things as well as troubling little
things, our minds will accept either
one. If we want to lay back
and sniff the lilies in our valley, we
must tend our seeds of thought with
constant care.
