Tend the Garden of Your Heart
Every human starts as a newly tilled and fertile field ready to grow whatever is planted therein. Two seeds are planted at birth, the God seed and the demon seed. While we are children we have little control over what is nurtured within us. It is when we increase in self-awareness and autonomy that we become responsible for our own growth. Ideally, at that point the God seed will be a young sapling, protected and supported and the land cleared. But that is not always the case. For some, the demon seed has been allowed to take hold and grow and the garden of their heart is filled with thorns. The God seed, having been forgotten, lies dormant under the choking tangle of weeds. It retains the ability to grow, but the weeds must first be cleared, the demons vanquished.
This process is usually quite painful. The weeds cannot be removed without feeling the prick of their thorns. But if one chooses not to do this hard and painful work, they will only continue to grow and multiply and they will begin to encroach upon those nearest to him. So it is our duty as communal beings to tend the garden of our own heart else it will negatively affect others, and it is the noblest of pursuits to help others tend theirs. For by that action you are directly working to bring more Godliness into a world in desperate need of it.
