I PLANTED A SEED AND I WATCHED IT GROW
I WILL NEVER KNOW HOW?!!!
A SEED SO SMALL
GOT SO TALL
IT CLIMBED UP THE STICK
I’D STUCK IN THE GROUND
UP IT WENT
ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND
UNTIL IT SEEMED IT’D NEVER STOP
AND WHEN IT FINALLY REACHED THE TOP
IT FLOWERED………..RED
THE FARMER SAID
THAT THOSE WILL BE BEANS
AND SHE WAS RIGHT
UPON HARVESTING, THEY WERE EATEN
THAT NIGHT!
We may not be planting beans, (although I am, in a little patch in my yard!) But a collaboration of collective minds, between UK and Ghana, sowing the seeds of a shared vision of establishing classical homeopathy here in Ghana.
A new energy is emerging among our practitioners, who are setting up practice, initiating Saturday clinics, finalising plans for mobile clinics, others just happy to participate in already established spaces.
Home visits, elder care, emergency relief. Homeopathic creativity, responding to communities, in diverse situations. Have homeopathic kit will travel!
Seeds will sprout in the location planted, others flourish further afield. Seeds we thought didn’t survive, suddenly appear in future seasons, having waited for their own moment to bloom.
So in moments where we down tools, we watch and wait, observing our homeopathic vision, actualising!!!
And in those moments, like Satchmo, I think to myself ‘what a wonderful world!’
