Reap What You Sow

I told you we started a compost pile, didn’t I? My husband and I were in the kitchen last night. He saw me put aside some old coffee grounds that would later be put in the compost pile. He told me that he was at my dad’s house the other day and saw my dad putting his coffee grounds right in his plants. I shared with my husband that I didn’t have as much trash anymore, that I’m putting a lot of the vegetable/fruit peelings, egg shells and coffee grounds in the compost pile. I also shared with him that growing up I remember that my dad would put aside egg shells and coffee grounds to bring them outside for his plants. This ritual was just part of his life style. It was a discipline to him. And I must say that my dad has a green thumb. I don’t think there is anyone else who can garden as good as him. He has fruit galore in his backyard, and he can nurse a dying plant back to life in no time.

It’s a discipline for him, one that’s a habit, one that he doesn’t think twice about. It’s the same for him with money and saving. I think we can do the same, if we just make that discipline a way of life, a discipline. Cut back on trash, cut back on spending. Win big! Have peace, and reap what you sow.
