Change takes time and patience. We have all heard that. But it takes more. It takes care, commitment, tolerance of setbacks and the ability to take stock of the micro changes in the moment, and not being hyper-focused on the desired outcome. Find the beauty and wonder in every moment, no matter how small. Before you know it, your landscape will be different..... Just like James' garden :)

Filling the Void. This is often something we are trying to do but also quite often aren't aware we are doing it. We feel anxious, distracted, irritated, unable to put our finger on it, or quick to throw the blame on the most convenient or prominent situation ( or person) in our path at the moment. But This often comes from not what IS there.. But what ISNT. Something is missing. Maybe connection, purpose, validation or fulfilment. Sometimes trying to fix this by what IS there stops us from truly seeing what we NEED there.
Our amazing team member James has recognized this every time he walks into the AGTTC. That neglected planter space beside the door. But instead of simply 'filling it with stuff', he is taking the time to explore what is needed to fill that void. He has started with the foundation of rich garden soil. James knows that doing it right will mean that the little things he does ( planting seeds or tiny plants) will grow in time to be something that feeds all of us with a richer day as we walk past it. Thanks James.

It wasn’t all bad. Sometimes we have to remember those times too. ALL of the times make us who we are. When I have hard days I look at things like this and say “yeah, that was me” and remember the pride and strength . Like pulling it out of the closet and realizing it may not be perfect , but it still fits ME.

On this cold sunny Friday I wanted to stop and reflect on a very important part of our clinic. Our Puzzle. What started out as a pile of rubble in a box has slowly transformed into a clear vision. I had said recently that I think its taking too long and that maybe its time to get rid of this one and replace it with a new one. Some of you were very quick to enlighten me! "Its not about it being finished. Its about the work it has taken to get this far. It is a picture of what it looks like when a community pitches in and works together. Every piece was found and placed by someone who cared enough. And even if it was just one piece they found and placed, it enabled another person to see the next piece, and so on." Truly I am humbled at the wisdom of our AGTTC family. Its not about finishing, its about how we navigate our way through the puzzle of life. And how powerful not doing it alone can be.
