when I think of nature in my childhood, I remember facing a huge lilac bush holding a leaf in each hand and talking. I no longer recall the conversation. I do remember how I loved that lilac bush when it bloomed. I would bury my face in it and wish its branches would unfold me. I talked to plants and trees because they talked to me. When I was nine years old, my cousin teased me and I stopped talking to plants. My cousin was a boy my age who's skillet teasing was well honed on me. I can still feel the red hot flush on my face and the fear of their Children would find out and tease me to fitting in became my priority. And so my conversation stopped and I no longer heard the voice of nature. My love for plants and trees never diminished. Grown up. I love my gardens. I knew every detail of every plant celebrating the blossoms new growth and quietly marking the deaths as the seasons changed. In 2003, nature once again spoke and I listened. There is no one particular event that opened my ears to nature's voice looking back. The year prior to Nature speaking was one of change. I practiced in prayerful meditation. Twice a day I received bodywork from a healer who used organic essential oils. The essential oils led me to study flower essence first developed by dr bock. After using flower essences produced by bach flower society. I experimented and made my own from the flowers in my garden. I use these flower essences to support and build my light energy. In addition that year I also received my rake a attunement including the master level is a subtle life energy that flows from the universe Spirit source or God to a practitioner. This energy flows from the practitioners hands and is directed into another human animal or plant. This energy is filled with love and the pure wisdom of spirit wreck a energy creates a healing effect. Each one of these practices enhanced awareness of my human connection to the universal field of energy or light in that awareness. I committed to garden cooperatively with nature. In listening to nature, I agreed to say yes to nature's instructions and act in faith. I would no longer be the benevolent dictator. The gardener. In days past I, the gardener made all the decisions I selected the plants I desired and planted them in locations most pleasing to me. I also condemned plants as weeds and forcefully removed them. I felt no remorse as a small plants I called weeds lay on the ground with bare roots exposed, slowly wilting to death. I, the gardener had the supreme right to make life and death decisions in this garden. I relinquished this role to cooperate with nature. I was no longer in charge. This commitment to nature was the first step I had said yes to nature and to God, which for me are one I soon learned to my shock that I was never in charge. The garden became a metaphor for my life.
