Resiliency of Nature | The Greatest Teacher

A couple weeks ago my daughter and I found these cute little money tree’s at the grocery store! They looked awesome, beautiful green leaves and a strong plant base.

It was very cold that evening. Unfortunately the store ran out of paper plant wraps, Valentines Day, so we ran to the car. By the morning the leaves looked off. By the end of the day, it was obvious they were “freezer burnt”. Many of them released from the plant. It looked really bare.

Then brand new baby leaves were growing on our trees.

See those two leaves in the back. They were the only leaves that hung on. They are beneath our diffuser every single night.

The plant in the front window, didn’t have any leaves that hung on. Every single leaf released and all brand new baby leaves have grown.

Just over a week of fresh growth!

So beautiful and those two leaves are still hanging on, bright green at the top half.

Sometimes we can feel frozen or stuck, things feel like they are falling apart. In reality, they may actually be falling into place, with divine timing.

Allow yourself grace, love, patience, truth. Choose to live in alignment. Nurture yourself with healthy food and water. Much like a plant, we are so similar and yet also tend to make our living far too complex. Live simply and honestly. Sometimes it takes shedding layers (or leaves), releasing what doesn’t serve you to attract in what is meant to be in your life. You will thrive. Just like my little friend! I purposely loved on these two little plants. Touching them and encouraging growth.

Everyday is a new opportunity for growth. 💖
