“In the hopes of reaching the moon men fail to see the flowers that blossom at their feet.” – Albert Schweitzer
Bringing our focus to the earth and the plants which sprout from it, we see a world filled with opportunities to make manifest the ideas that have come to us. We work with these resources, toiling to create the lives we have imagined with all that the planet has to offer. From the plants which sprout from the earth and the minerals we gather, we create new harvests of technology, community, and art.
While lofty dreams and distant goals may compel us to reach farther or move us in a positive direction, let us not forget all that is within reach. The earth offers a cornucopia of supplies that will help us reach our dreams, no matter how lofty, and attain our goals, providing for us through the whole distance of our journey.
Take some time today to be thankful for all of the resources your world offers in your journey toward happiness, and you may just find you’re already there.
