Honesty and the Garden

"Not everyone has to be born with a green thumb in order to garden. Rather, someone can learn from experiences, opportunities, and trials. Gardeners always stay open minded towards new opportunities. Good gardeners share their expertise with others as well. Like minded individuals find refuge in gardening, as it is the empath's paradise."

I talk a lot about gardening on my blog page here. This is an important subject in my personal opinion. Over time gardening has really changed and became different. Check out more about the short term changes in gardening here. It is so important to understand these changes along with both their positive and negative affects. Staying healthy is a must do throughout life. Why?

Gardening is the empath's refuge, or that is at least what I like to call it. Being out in the garden provides solace where one can thrive, learn, and grow. Life is all about learning, and so is gardening. If I have to be honest, gardening is always one of the most rewarding hobbies on the planet. The aspects of the garden help soothe the restless soul and the aching heart. 

Being around plants has really helped me come to understand the aspects of nature. Maybe the sheer foundation is gardening. Making sure to garden and spend time outside will give all sorts of health benefits. Having that connection is so important. 

"Gardening has so many benefits and rewards. The food tastes so much better. It's like a flavor party. I find it very amazing the difference between different foods. With gardening one cannot simply just give up. No. That's not how it needs to be. Try different locations to grow, different methods, crop rotation, amending the soil, adding beneficial organisms in to the soil, plant something different, etc. There is always a way to solve issues with a little research. Tracking through the internet is how I have learned a lot about not just the subject of gardening, but how to plant, where to plant, and what nutrients are needed for certain plants. It's really simple to get access to solutions in gardening. Never just give up because the rewards are worth the strife."
