I was driving to work and as I looked at the brown grass and
trees and I started thinking how sad it is to become dormant and I thought to
myself is what I see when I look in the mirror? Am I a person that has become dormant?
There are many times when I think about aspects
in my life and I feel I am dormant. Now
the meaning of dormant says “not actively growing: in an inactive state, when
growth and development slow or cease, in order to survive adverse environmental
conditions.” I think there are times in
our lives that we all feel like this and yes possibly these times are
necessary, especially when we have economic or family issues. After my
adventure to France last year I found a new life within me, a person that I
think I was keeping dormant for many years and I kind of like this new person. I no longer want to be dormant. I want to be consistently
growing, learning and changing. I want
to blossom and stay flowering every day, year after year. Trying new challenges
and facing the unknown with excitement and anticipation. To be ever changing you need constant
support, just as a flower needs to be watered and tended too, you need to have
family and friends that will continue to support you and help you grow. I know now after the support I have received
in building my new career. I will have that support and I only hope that I will
continue to make their gardens beautiful.
So when you look into the mirror in the morning, ask yourself are you
becoming dormant? Is there something
inside you that you need to water and let flourish. If there is find those around you that will
support you and then let it grow. I know
if I can do this you can too. I wish you
luck, happiness and I hope you allow me to be the first person to put some
water on your dream and say “you can do it”.
God Bless and Happy and Safe Travels.
