Instead of writing today, I went outside to dig up the area by my fence and plant some flowers. As I was pulling the lavender out of its pot to plant in the ground, I noticed that the roots were holding on to the pot, fighting to leave its cramped little home. It happened with the hyacinth as well, the roots also wrapped hopelessly around itself. It dawned on me that this could be a lesson. It’s hard to leave the only place you’ve ever called home. It’s scary to be moved away from everything you’ve ever known and placed out in the wide open world. Sometimes, you fight the change, and that’s okay for awhile, just don’t hold on so tight or stay so long that it destroys parts of you. Everyone comes to that place in life where the Universe tells them that they need to move on. There are usually signs like small things going wrong and the general sense that you don’t belong anymore. Generally speaking, you’ll know when it’s time to leave the little pot you grew up in. Maybe you’ll move a bigger planter or maybe you’ll just jump out into the earth. Just remember that the move is for the best. Staying in a place you’ve outgrown will only kill you inside. Moving on to bigger and better plots of dirt could just see you grow and thrive. Anyway, have a look at my newest video. These are a few of the books I like to read and a few books that help me whenever I get stuck. I particularly love the book with some writing prompts. That one always seems to help the creative juices flow. Right, well there’s still plenty of time to vote in the 2019 TCK Reader's Choice Awards.
