On Being Well, Wealthy and Wise ...
There was one John Chapman who filled his sack with apple seeds and roamed the country, scattering these seeds far and wide. We know him as Johnny Appleseed.
Some seeds fell on hard rock and they died.
Some seeds fell on arid land. Lacking nourishment they too died.
But some seeds fell on fertile soil, took root and over several years grew into a healthy apple tree. Each spring the tree would flower and little apples appeared on its branches. The apples grew and ripened into delicious fruit. Birds, animals and people ate of this fruit and grew well with the nutrients of the fruit. Some of the apples fell to the ground and sprouted new trees and over time orchards sprang throughout the country.
How we live our lives can be compared to an apple seed. What do we do with our talents? Do we just let them lie there on hard rock? Do we fail to nurture our talents and so let them die? Or do we look for the right conditions, nurture and grow our talents and make something of ourselves and humanity?
Each of us has talents, nurtured wisely, we will lead a life of wealth and wellness. Here at AppleSeeds Grow we will explore ways to live well financially, physically and emotionally. We will showcase some who have made enormous strides, others who are mere seedlings in their endeavours but on their way to planting orchards. We will share health tips, wealth tips, some mental meanderings and along the way have some fun.
