CLARITY GARDENING
Hey Girl, may you find yourself standing in a garden you are proud to call yours, filled with joy, rooted in peace, alive with purpose.
Hey Girl,
Your thoughts are the seeds; every single one you plant today will bloom into the garden you will walk through tomorrow. You may not notice the planting process in the rush of your daily life, but the truth is every belief, and word you speak to yourself, every story you tell yourself about who you are and what is possible, all of it is falling into the soil of your mind.
Some seeds like fear, worry, and comparison sprout quickly; they grow like weeds if left unchecked, winding around the roots of hope until it becomes harder to breathe. Other seeds, likened to faith, courage, patience, and vision, take longer; they demand your care, your intentionality, and your willingness to believe in their unseen growth before you see their petals reach the light.
Clarity gardening is the art of knowing what you are planting and being deliberate about what you allow to remain in your soil. You are both a gardener and a guardian. Some days, this will mean pulling up weeds that seemed harmless at first, that whisper that says you can’t, the vine of comparison that wraps itself tighter with every scroll through social media, the thorny bush of bitterness that promises to “protect you” but only keeps love out.
On other days, it is about protecting delicate seedlings, fragile ideas, tender dreams, and new beginnings that need your warmth and faith to grow, saying “no” to things that trample on your peace, even when that “no” feels heavy. It will mean saying “yes” to rest, nourishment, prayer, and the slow work of transformation.
Be gentle with yourself, but be firm with your boundaries. Pull out what doesn’t belong, and plant more of what you wish to see. Speak blessings over your life. Surround yourself with voices that water your hope and light.
Light,
Temitope Olusola
