This is a great idea to use the grapevine cuttings, it would be a fun thing to create with my cuttings. Then again, it just might end up with a big ol' yellow jacket nest in it!!!

Today, we had a beautiful sunny warm today, about 58 degrees F. This weather is so very unusual for western Oregon.  There is normally snow and cold this time of the year.

I cut back all the asparagus, and grapevines. I removed all the raspberry vines because I want to use the area for other plants.

The raspberries have not been producing, and I am ready to change some of the things that I grow in the garden.

I will been putting two new raised wooden garden beds into that area. One will be used for new strawberry plants. The other will be for new rhubarb plants. I have about 1" of mud on my boots now.....later this week I will be putting organic material in some vegetable beds.

Let Yourself Keep Growing

Hello dear kindred, here's your daily truth...

Dear Growing Soul,

Please, dear friend, let yourself keep growing. Do you hear me? LET YOURSELF KEEP GROWING. Let yourself change. Let yourself learn. Let yourself become. Let yourself let go of who you once were if it’s time for you to become something new.

And the fact is, it’s time for all of us to become something new all the time. We are living, growing beings. This means that every time we grow, we are different than we were before. There is no shame in this, there is nothing wrong with this and there is also not a real way to prevent it from happening. Because it is supposed to happen this way.

Who you were is different from who you are. Who you are is different from who you will become. You are meant to progress in this way, everyone is. Don’t let anyone steal this miracle from you and don’t let yourself try to steal it from anyone else. 

Sometimes we have giant growth spurts and we grow out of everything that fit us before. There are growing pains, but it doesn’t mean that it’s wrong. Change is hard and and change is beautiful and change is absolutely necessary.

Grieve and let go of the old, and open your hands joyfully to the new. It will make everything just a little bit easier, beautiful friend. 

It is going to be okay. You are going to be okay. You are just right just as you are, and you were just right just as you were, and you will be just right just as you become. Trust this. Life is a beautiful messy process and you’re growing new wings.

You are so very very loved.
xoxo

Your Life is a Reflection

Our life is a reflection of our mind. We create everything in our life because of the beliefs we have, the thoughts we think and how those drive our choices, actions and results. Everything you want in life is waiting for you. Goals, dreams, aspirations, peace, happiness, health, love, abundance, success... When you master your mind, you master your life.
