Greeting dear blogging friends! I give you another peek at a ROAMcare post, Harvesting Greatness.

Harvest time is here. Time to set aside the hard work and reward yourself. Time to harvest the greatness you have carefully cultivated.

Harvesting Greatness

Summer is behind us; Autumn is just beginning. Fall festivals and harvest fairs are on the calendar. Harvest time. A period of celebration going back centuries. Millenia even. It was the harvest that fueled communities through the stinginess of winter and the necessary thriftiness of spring. Summer would bring moments of respite from the stored necessities while everyone waited for the annual fall bounty. Naturally there is a caveat to this celebratory season. You reap what you sow. In the words of American author Ralph Ransom, “Before the reward there must be labor.”

There will come a time when you want to set aside the hard work and reward yourself for that labor. There will come a time to harvest the greatness you hopefully cultivated.

As with harvesting a crop or a backyard garden, there is more to reaping the bounty than simply pulling up what had been planted. And as we had compared cultivating greatness to tending one’s garden, harvesting greatness also has its comparisons to reaping one’s bounty.
