Planting Seeds of Life

Do you plant these kinds of seeds? There are many ways to plant those seeds. Some you may see start and then die and some will fall by the wayside and not sprout or take off at all and then…….then you may not realize it but some will sprout and grow into strong plants. Some of the thoughts that you didn’t even know that you planted will come back to you days, months or sometimes years later. You just never know.

Jesus talks about planting seeds and how some will grow and become fruitful and how some will fall onto rocks and such. He knows how people are and how their thoughts works and some of the patterns that are formed from those thoughts and deeds. Being a good Christian was not what he was talking about. He was talking about how everything has a purpose and a time that is right for planting seeds and for being fruitful. He also says that we should be careful of those thoughts and seeds that we plant in others because some will come to fruition for better or worse. We have the ability to change what comes to us by what we send out. What we may not be able to change is our circumstances because they may be exactly what we wanted out of this life. It may also be a way to get the lessons that we are to learn. Be sure that you are planting seeds of a good and positive nature.

The Person Sitting Beside You

Who the person sitting beside you

when one place to another you must move

on a subway or bus or in a grocery store

Someone comes and sits close to you like other times before

You put up your protective shell

Like all other times as well

What are the deep feelings you feel

Take time right now and your shell you should peal

To see just how those others to you relate

Do they make you feel like some kind of bate

Or is it you who does the judging

without you doing the budging

You think of all the things you've been taught and you start to assume

are they single, Muslim, Jewish, or gay and other things that may not be true

have we become to think and to look at another

like they were some kind of ugly creature or other

By only seeing their outside looks

like what you have been told by that religious book

Would you be a fellow human

and extend your hand

With a smile just for a little while or a few seconds

Come on now your soul becons.

Do you really know if that other person,

is a friend or foe or just a human version,

Of an Angel that you are unaware,

put in your path to make you more aware

Of the things you think and what you do,

To the Person sitting *inside* of you.
