It has been awhile since I last posted anything. But I had a strong urge to explain how your love is a flower pot.
We are often told that when you plant a seed, you must water it. But no one explains what happens when you plant too many seeds. You spread yourself thin trying to water them all and provide the right kind of sunlight.
So how is your love a flower pot? First know that I am not talking about the many facets of love (even though I'm sure this could be considered for them). No, I am talking about your relationship love... the kind you put your heart into with one other person.. your partner, companion, lover.
Take the seed, plant it into your flower pot. Then take a different seed and also plant it into your flower pot... then another. And so on. It can get a bit crowded after awhile and even though your same action of water and sun is done regularly, you either end up with a lot of dead flowers or just a couple trying to make it. But who wants a crowded flower pot?
Your love life's success is built on what you are willing to put into it and whether or not you are focusing only on one seed. If you spread your focus thin, then you'll lose the very essence of planting the seed in the first place. Your goal to have a variety in your flower pot cost you a lot of dead flowers, or maybe one half grown weak flower. Your love is the same way.
One more concept to consider:
Once you get a flower to grow.... pulling it out by its roots from the same soil is hard. Some roots are deep and intertwined. You can't change your soil...your flower pot is the same as it will always be... you're the one planting the seeds.
So plant wisely, take care of your flower pot and never underestimate how strong a root is.
Thanks for reading!
