Growing a garden

Today in yoga, the teacher made reference to your life being like a empty garden. You can plant any seed you wanted, cultivate it and watch it grow. It really got me thinking about what seeds are in my hand. Sometimes the wheels in my head begin to move so fast about what my life could be, it almost overwhelms me back to complacency. No negative seeds needed. I am already growing a crop of nonsense. I have this image of me walking down a empty field in my overalls. Starting simple, picking emotions.... I would plant joy, understanding, kindness, and laughter. I would include intentions towards my family, my career and my friends. I just need to put that first seed in the ground. I think I will plant joy first. We all could use a little more fun around here.
