We achieve what we believe....

As I drive my route each morning, many thoughts come to me that I would love to write about. As often happens, by the time I get back to my desk , after finishing my morning run and early chores, most of these have become clouded over by the happenstances of my morning.
Today was no different. I must have had at least half a dozen different trains of thought that I wanted to share with you,all of which have either vanished or buried for at least the time being.
The one thought that has remained fresh for me today is around farming.
Yes, I said farming.
 Maybe it's because Spring is just around the corner. 
Maybe it's because of the nature of what it takes to be a good farmer.
Or maybe for the first time in avery long time, I am beginning to see the fruits of my labors blossom. 
What ever the reason, I am feeling proud to be the farmer that I have been all of my life.
Being a farmer is good, honest work.
It is a testament to a lot of what I believe to be the way of life.
Hard work and commitment will always reap a harvest.
Attention to detail is always critical.
Sweating the small stuff IS important!
Consistency is key.
And some things,like the weather, are simply not ours to control and we just have to deal with them and move on.
Farming is a hard life,certainly not a job for everyone.
And then there are those of us who just don't know how to do life any other way!
