In the country

Published on November 2, 2009 in General. 0 Comments

Away for a week on a company retreat – As the train made it’s way into the Suffolk countryside I was made aware of the seasons and how quickly they can change – In the space of a few days the majority of the leaves on the trees have been sacrificed to another year – It’s the extremes that make things happen – A dear friend is having a tough time right now and I’ve been reminded of the old adage that before the breakthrough comes the breakdown – As all gardeners know seeds have to go through a period of extreme dryness, drought, heat, and rain before they can germinate – Out of adversity comes new growth
So if you are struggling right now take comfort of the fact that it is the beginnings of new growth
