It's MY Dirt!

We're all given a piece of land to till. Some of us take great care of it & others decide to let it go to seed. In fact, others decide to actually plant weeds in their little plot. The attitude we hear is, "It's my plot of land - it's my decision to do what I want with it." True, but what about those around you that are also trying to make a garden? Your weeds are wafting into their little areas & they have to keep picking your weeds out of their garden.

How discouraging it gets when we continually have to clean up the mess because someone else wants to ignore their patch of ground - or worse yet, decides to actively plant something destructive.

Of course this applies to all aspects of life, but on this blog it's going to apply to what we're doing to our kids & family? Yes it's your body but don't you know your kids watch & copy your actions? Do you really think it's possible to ruin your health & not ruin your family's as well as a result? Believe me, I don't think for a minute it's easy to take care of the garden!! I know, it's an overwhelming job - but look at what it's doing to those you care about if you DON'T DO IT!
