“Don’t chase butterflies, but craft a wonderful garden where butterflies will flock.” This quote has been swirling in my head for days now, and I can’t stress how important this is. While chasing the thing is the common thing to do, oftentimes, one forgets oneself in the process. Though one must take the time to focus on the present, tending to our gardens is easier said than done due to the many situations that one may be put into.
For some, their lives are their future. One works day and night, hoping to get that goal, not recognizing their frail body. Others become so preoccupied with what can be, rather than what is. Realizing these things are an important step to finally work on you and with Heaven Luck, a factor of Human Success, it is definitely possible. With Heaven Luck, finding the right path to finally focus on you is definitely possible. While it is wise to worry about the future, don’t forget that you will be in it, so don’t neglect yourself.
When realizing the path of least resistance, the hard part comes, which is the work. In my line of work, this is called Man Luck. This is usually hard because not only does it involve doing something new, but breaking from patterns as well. One must consciously remember to be kind and care for oneself, which may not be so instilled. With hard work and preparation, working for your future will come easily as you are starting to build yourself up as well.
If it was that simple, many people would have the wondrous gardens already; however, it isn’t that easy. That is mainly because, despite the clear usage of the other two factors, one other factor was lacking, which is Earth Luck. Earth Luck refers to the energy and support you get from your environment and it is also called Feng Shui. In any home, if done incorrectly, the energy entering the home can hinder the goals of everyone in the home.
Despite it all, it can still be a difficult thing to simply surrender yourself to what is instead of control what you can’t. With expectation from those who love, support and care for you, one may feel overwhelmed with what must be done. No matter what your goal is, if you are truly supported, no one will get mad at you for tending and caring for yourself. While it is true that your goal may be achieved a little slowly, with a gorgeous garden, I’m sure that the path will slowly reveal itself to you.
