Dreams are like seeds. We plant them and watch as they germinate and bear fruits. To have them grow and germinate properly, we must water and nurture them constantly and consistently. Like babies, we must attend to them carefully and caringly. In farming, season is everything. The time we plant and till the land differs from when we must attend to the seeds for nurturing or they wither due to our negligence. While season is everything in planting, timing and spacing equally play pivotal roles in the grand scheme.
As farmers, and of course, dreamers, faith also plays a crucial role in shaping and conspiring with the universe to do its wonders. That, it is not just enough to plant, relax, and go back to bed. You must have faith in the process and ultimately success of your efforts. Faith that changes and transforms dead seeds to blossom and bear greater fruits. In faith, your anchor may be God or anything you believe in. To weather the storms of planting and the experience of waiting, it is crucial to have faith and stick to it. Ask farmers, they will tell you the power of faith and dream.
Farmers are dreamers but they work with vision of how they want their farmland and plants to turn out. They work in anticipation and expectation of faith premised on sound judgment.
For newbies farmers and dreamers, the idea of faith may sound pretty chilling and counter-intuitive. But it is part of the process. You cultivate and wait. You watch the growth of your plant and wish the time to harvest comes faster than imagined. Fortunately, the time will come when you are left with nothing but to harvest. The joy and smile on your face melt and dissolve your worries into nothingness.
In the moment of harvest, a farmer can temporarily forget about all the backbreaking efforts and the sleepless nights. But those nights and days under the scorching sun and blistering weather have a way of coming back when least expected. They have a way of reminding the farmers and of course the dreamers of what it takes to arrive at that rare junction of accomplishments and fulfilments.
