We have a desire to feed and protect, as well as offer our heart, supporting all that we love. The drive to encourage comes from a deep place where we have learned the flow of life enough to be able to give back.
The importance of filling ourselves, so that we can pour out is clear.
We take care, so others can be taken care of.
This is us. Who are we? We are Nurturers.
As mothers we nurture young minds to live, and see, and feel this beautiful world. But also, and maybe more importantly, we play a part in developing beautiful souls and hearts within.
We are Nurturers.
As homemakers we consider the need for nourishment as our duty, and the offering is our joy.
If I’m honest, it doesn’t matter whether it is homemade, store bought, or fast food. It’s the fact that we gave.
We are Nurturers.
We feast as we feed. The flow of giving and receiving is an art we learn and teach.
Not everything, however, is so weighty. Days are filled with lighthearted deeds, such as cooking, decorating, and another favorite—cultivating life through plants.
Houseplants are my manner of gardening all year long. The weather changing does not alter the process, because everything needed to grow beautiful plants is indoors, under one roof.
During so many hours indoors this year (thank you, 2020), I have, once again, taken up the hobby of propagating plants. I plan to fill each room in my house with Curly Spider Plants, which have all come from one main mother plant.
The plan is progressing beautifully so far. Plant. Grow. Propagate. Repeat.
We are Nurturers.
As we dwell in the charming atmosphere of autumn, and begin to prepare for the chilly coziness of winter, let’s ponder the thought of pouring out even more—more of ourselves to the ones we love, and more of everything good that hovers and waits inside of us.
We are Nurturers.
Loving and Living Life...... Amanda
