Seed Within

Iheard a voice and a look inside me. And that voice spoke to me incomprehensible things that I didn’t want to hear.

But the look… the look would captivate me to a necessary peace, so that these words would stay with me and sprout amidst my silences. And so it was! And in this way, a seed of peace was planted in me.

It entered through my eyes on a summer afternoon and led my nature to generate new seeds, to sprout new and old dreams. Today I can only say: How lucky I am, right? How nice!

I think that there are moments when something is sown within us, without us even being able to realize it. You know, dear people, I firmly believe that we can be beings of shadows or of light. And so are the seeds that we plant around with our presence, with our words, with our love or dislike. We can plant weeds, full of thorns and roughness, or we can plant fruit trees, fields of flowers, of light, peace, love, faith!

I would like you to reflect on one thing: If you were an immense plow of fertile land, what would you like to be planted in this soil? If it were your responsibility what grows on your land, what would you like to grow and invade?

I would like some blue flowers like lavender, because in addition to beauty, they would perfume my life and that of those who passed by it. And I would also like more looks of peace… And how would you like your plow to be?

I wanted to tell you that he, your plow, is your sacred soil, your heart, your spirit! And it can be cultivated as you want and allow!! It can be cultivated with the most beautiful things, with the most beautiful flavors of life. You can emanate light into someone’s eyes, joy, enthusiasm, serenity, love, hope, peace. The opposite of all this is also true.

What you would like to find in life, in another, he would also like to find in you! Have you ever thought about it?? I have been thinking.

And I know very well that in the hustle and bustle of the day, sometimes we are absent from ourselves! We are absent from the daily commitment to our heart, to our spirit. Then we are absent from the other and from life. Our looks become more absent, our care for what we put inside our homes is lost.

Our care for what we plant in ourselves and around the streets, at home, at work, in our coexistence with those we love, is lost… And when we see we are living a desert life. Our soul is deserted! Our heart is deserted! And abandoned soil cracks! The soil that is not handled, cared for, loved, breaks more easily!

I hope that this text arrives as a letter of warning, addressed to your heart. And no matter how it is, whether fertile or deserted… I hope that at least one of these words is a strong seed of light for it.

That today, we can wake up to the necessary maneuvers of life. That we can be fertile land in the face of good seeds. That we can generate the most beautiful fruits and flowers, because after all the world needs our seeds of love! And I think I already said here, in other letters addressed to your heart, that everything that is planted with love takes revenge! And I say more… everything that is planted with love bears fruit, you see!! Even if you don’t realize it now, you can be sure that if you allow it, one fine day you will be surprised with the most beautiful, most flowery, most fruitful field and with the most beautiful harvest.

And since I am given to telling secrets, I will tell you this one: All soil is fertile, my people!!

Don’t listen to those who say it’s impossible! I will repeat so that you don’t forget: All soil is fertile!! All soil is blessed by the Creator on the day it was given ownership. Just knowing that, you take care!

Handle it with love! Feed it with your care and your love!! All soil is capable of giving good results, you see! Weeds will always exist, but you know what? You can uproot them instead of letting them grow.

It’s a choice! You can have the most beautiful garden inside you, as long as you accept it and decide to cultivate it. And do you want to know more? There will always be time for a good planting and for your harvest! So go planting, go harvesting and go thanking, because gratitude is fertilizer for everything you want to see sprout more and more!
