i will plant beautiful things in my mind

 

promises to myself

i will plant beautiful things in my mind, because the world has too much ugliness already. too much pollution, negligence, too many weeds gone rampant, parasites roaming free. i will take care of the most important ecosystem first and foremost - and tend to it with care: the earth, the air, the seeds within me. this is where anything i create and do outside begins. everyday, i wake up and check the air quality, clean up the litter, speak with the weather, give a little care and attention to whatever in me which is calling for it. little by little, everyday. even - and especially - on those days when i feel like a barren desert. cactus flowers are beautiful, too.
