There comes a time when you know it is right to clear away the things of the past. A time to let go and move on and into the light again. The lessons you learn will forever remain etched upon your very being. I don’t think you ever stop loving anyone you have loved, but the love changes. If it has been nurtured it grows stronger and the seed you have planted bears fruit, if it is not it withers and dies… only the memory of the planting remains. If you are fortunate you learn from having planted the seed, sometimes you learn not to plant in fallow ground. Sometimes the lesson is without proper sunlight, water, and food a seed can not survive. Knowing when it is time to till the ground again is necessary if you want to have a garden full of beautiful flowers and memories. Perhaps in our own way we are all farmers.
