" Magtanim ay Di biro "

   ( Sowing is not easy )

Written by: Christopher ( backyard farmer )

When we say sowing the first thing that comes in our mind is a typical  seed or planting a crops and as I observe in many different aspects  of life.

Sowing or planting can be one of the best analogy we may follow along our life journey whether it is literal sowing or sowing in other aspects of life like faith, relationships, career and other related life events.

I would like to share some sorts of ideas that I learned from my mentors out there that I hope you may add it to your wisdom and knowledge.

Planting a literal seed:

We all know from seed to harvest is not easy as we think enjoying food in our tables is simply came from the hard laborers of the farm itself from preparation of quality soil to seed germination until it bears it fruits.

saying a little thanks to our farmers is a big gesture for every consumer  planting also at your spare backyard or even in a small pot at a time will helps a lot. and don't forget when the time you sow you absolutely waiting for the time of harvest sowing seed is like a human life that needs to grow and enrich its highest potential.

Human Flesh is a cycle:

 When a person died, their bodies will be buried at the ground after many months the flesh will be eaten up by the soil in short they eat the decomposing body to take as nutrients for the soil will become more fertile let's say a man dig and plant a seed of a tree to that pit and after a couple of months it bears fruit the nutrients came from a decomposing body enrich the soil that gives the tree a fruit after this man eaten up the fruit and died a year later this man buried also near at the same ground and will come back in the form of cycle, as you see that sowing and harvesting is a cycle the thing is when the time you sow is the time you know that  we are waiting for some harvest and as you follow the examples if you don't sow you will don't expect to harvest that's the analogy!

It has been written also in the bible it's either you sow a good or evil you will your harvest!

For whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

Galatians 6:7-9

Planting your Relationships:

We are not good enough to everyone even in our own family like our spouse and children's even we love them very much still we commit some mistakes and evil because of human imperfection and sin fall, but as we dig deeper and continue to sow goodness and faithfulness we know there is always a tie  of harvest.

Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.

Galatians 6:9

Sowing your finances:

Preparing seed of finances is not easy task, it needs a lot of work and determination to attain it's true value.

Learn how to plant first in the mind by means of Reading books and attending financial seminars and continues learning is one of the best starting point in financial management you should know that there's a  time to sow and there is also some bad weather that everyone will encounter during cropping season but if you manage your finances well you know you have something in the future because you planted it before.

Sow and Reap is just like an easy word to say but actually it's not easy to apply, only the brave and patient individuals are the most qualified to reach the harvest time.
