A garden has leaves, flowers and fruits.
When I watch our garden form the veranda of our cottage, I find myself at a loss thinking about, how with least of attention this cycle continues in nature.
This story in nature is refreshingly inspiring because, it is a symbol of the abundance all around us. Humans receive all these gifts because of which we are sustained.
Nature gives and gives...
It gives us a bounty of goodness.
Yesterday, some of us from the department where I work, had an opportunity to visit a school and spend sometime with the teachers of the kindergarten. I was amazingly refreshed by the 'giving' attitude of the teachers. While discussing to design a child friendly class room for the first timers at school, I felt carried away by their enthusiasm to create an inviting class room for the four years old children.
It is in giving we receive. The little we give has the prospects to multiply. The more we give, the more we receive!
The repair and reconstruction continued in our property since the floods in September 2018. The last batch of workmen finished their work yesterday. They restored the property well. I felt that most of them just did not work for their wages, but for restoring the property! They thought beyond their wages.
To grow in goodness and self-giving attitude is a calling to live by!
