The Seeds You Plant: Cultivating Patience During Personal Metamorphosis

There is a timeless wisdom in the saying: "The day you plant the seed is not the day you eat the fruit." This truth resonates across all dimensions of life, especially during periods of personal metamorphosis. It reminds us that what we nurture today may not immediately reveal itself, but that doesn't diminish the value of beginning the cultivation process.

Last month, I experienced this principle in an unexpected way. I noticed a burst of vibrant orange flowers blooming in a section of our land where I had never observed growth before. Then the realization washed over me, this was precisely where we had planted my daughter's placenta back in November 2022. For years, there had been no visible indication of what was developing beneath the surface. But now, from that sacred planting, from the very nutrients that once sustained new life within me, something beautiful had emerged.

This moment illuminated the nature of cultivation, both literal and metaphorical. We rarely know what will ultimately blossom from our efforts, and we seldom witness immediate manifestation. But the act of planting is fundamentally an expression of faith, a devotion to possibilities not yet visible but intuitively sensed.

Throughout our lives, particularly during periods of change, we continuously sow seeds, intentions, commitments, new patterns, small shifts that gradually reshape our reality. Some seeds germinate quickly, while others require seasons, even years, to break through into visibility. Yet each holds within it the latent potential for something entirely new to emerge.

This is the wisdom I've learned to trust: initiating growth with intention, even when uncertain about when or how the flowering will occur. Distributing seeds in directions that resonate with my inner compass, nurturing them with consistent presence, and having faith that in their own perfect timing, they will emerge. They will generate new possibilities. They will usher in fresh beginnings.

When navigating periods of transformation, we often expect immediate evidence of progress. We plant seeds of change, new habits, different perspectives, healing practices and then grow frustrated when we don't immediately see results. But the most meaningful transformations often develop beneath the surface long before becoming visible.

Just as those orange flowers took over two + years to emerge, your own evolution follows natural rhythms that can't be rushed. The changes you're nurturing now, whether letting go of outdated patterns, cultivating new relationships, or reimagining your purpose, require patience and consistent tending.

What seeds are you planting during this season of change?
