Generosity

[greenstorm]

Generosity is easy to achieve when I feel that the world will supply me with all I want; conversely it's a bit harder for me to give when I feel impoverished. What's this mean? I should probably spend time trying not to feel impoverished, and I'll have more to give. Makes sense, right?

The first marigold is starting to open; the first tomato is starting to turn yellow. I've made an agreement with the SO to try and balance our relationship a little more and to bring it to the forefront a little more; it's been a bit neglected recently. I'm starting to find a little more courage in myself. I'm not always doing what I feel at the time to be the right thing, but it does tend to end up that way.

Tonight I'm going home. It'll be good to be there.

Are you saying when you have ripe vegetables that you'll cut your SOs all the slack in the world?

(No, I know you're not saying that. I'm deliberately misinterpreting your metaphor, or misinserting metaphor where there is none.) :)

In all seriousness all that paragraph was highly related, but not at all metaphorical. I guess that stuff doesn't come out too well. The world's generous to me, things are growing, and I can afford to try and be generous and to grow too. That was the gist, IIRC.

Is OK. I hardly use metaphor at all in my own posts 'cause I'm not very good at it, so don't feel that I'm making fun. I mean to tease but gently. :)
