Perspective

You may see a backyard full of weedy beds and paths.

I see an opportunity to get on my knees, put on my headphones, listen to a book on my ipod, catching up on podcasts, pray, meditate on goodness in my life, and plan for my and the garden's future while I hand pull every last sprout.

And then, before I know it, the task is completed and it is time to go back inside.
