The same seeds we plant in life we get to watch grow.
If someone plants a seed they do so with anticipation waiting for the seed to grow to become something greater, something beautiful.
We do the same thing in the lives that we daily. With purpose and a hope that in the future our lives will be something greater than it already is. When things get rough and tears begin to fall down our faces becoming overwhelmed by fears, frustrations, and grief we begin to water those same seeds we plant in our lives. We begin to grow becoming wiser and strong.
We planted seeds in the souls of the people that we love. We say and do things to watch them prosper. We plant a seed, shower them with encouragement when they need it and watch them grow.
Our parents plant seeds in us. From young ages, they do things out of love knowing that they will get to watch us grow from the seeds they have planted in our lives. Seeds of wisdom, love, prosperity, and passion. Sometimes, we may think our way is best but at the end of the day it turns out that they were right and we were wrong. Those are the types of situations we learn the most from and the next time we ask for guidance because our parents have lived longer lives than us. They want what is best for us, so when they give us advice and correct us it's not because of what they want but because they see our wants and needs in life. They have grown up and they want to help us fulfill our wants and needs. They have planted seeds in us, they just want to watch us grow.
We plant seeds in the people that we don't know. In a crowded room, full of people kind words could be the thing someone needed to have a better day. Those are the types of seeds you want to plant. The seeds that give life.
Everything in life should have a purpose. Whether it be in the things that you do or the things that you say. As people grow old they get to turn around to look at the past to see all of the seeds they have planted big or small and admire what those seeds have become. That has to be one of the most pleasing feelings one can feel. The feeling of planting a seed with a purpose.
