Veterinary Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites - How Does Your Garden Grow

There’s so much wisdom on Facebook – have you noticed? A friend posted a meme that said “Stop tending other peoples’ gardens at the expense of your own.”

Think about that for a moment – how often do you help a friend when you really need to be doing something else? How often do you stay in a conversation that makes you feel bad just because you don’t want to hurt the other person’s feelings? How often do you choose to hurt your own feelings instead of hurting someone else’s?

It’s ok to occasionally do for others instead of for yourself, but if you almost always tend other people’s gardens and let yours become a bed of weeds, that’s not ok. You matter. Your needs matter. Be sure to tend to your own needs so that you can joyfully help others with theirs.
