Time to Leave......or be raked away?

I completed raking leaves from the side of a steep hill for the lodge keeper per his request. I felt like a mountain goat as I had to insert my heels into the soil as to not loose my balance.Personally I believe leaves need to be left alone to replenish the earth. I raked the leaves and pulled out many young saplings which were trying to naturally reinforce the earth from the steep incline. Despite my internal beliefs I did the request.

I reaped many benefits from this project and a clear realization that if we want to grow we must leave! Leave things in the past,leave things alone that must resolve on it's own. BE-LEAVE in your self! If we decide not to leave we sit and decay until we are renewed (made new again) like the new earth created from a decaying leaf.

So will we sit and decay like a decomposing leaf or will we get up and take action and leave to accomplish our inside desires?
