#99 Sustainable growth
The Ice Saints are just around the corner and then (at least if you believe the traditional recommendations) the big sowing season begins.
We thought this might be a great opportunity to start a long-term self-reflection exercise:
When sowing your vegetables (or even when repotting your favorite plant), think of a question you'd like to ask yourself more often. We've put together a few examples:
- What have I done for democracy this week?
- How much time did I invest in which media today?
- How do I now feel about the time when I sowed your seeds?
- Have I acted against my convictions at any point since the last casting? Why?
- What conflicts am I currently avoiding out of convenience?
- What political decision has strongly influenced my everyday life today?
- Should I have disagreed in a situation recently?
- Have I adopted simplifications or prejudices this week?
- Has any of my viewpoints on an important issue changed since I last poured?
Whenever you water, ask yourself your made-up question or the one you chose here. A small sign on the plant could help you to remember this. Also interesting: How do your answers change over time?
Have fun sowing and a good harvest!
