For what purpose?

Tweet

. I purchased this small piece of land 14 years ago in order to get two families out of the squaters area.. But they slowly turned this land into a rubbish dump.. What they did is only to take advantage of the free money and of what they could get out of the land..It's very clear now that they never really cared about the time and effort and the good intention we had for them..They corrupted our genuine good intention.. But it's all my fault for volunteering to help.. We are very grateful to our new caretaker for helping us clear the rubbish accumulated. He truly did more than what we expected of him to do..Now that the trees are happy again, my enormous guilt for allowing them to abuse the land is slowly going away..I am very grateful for this guilt being lifted off my shoulders.. For the first time, I feel the real peace and tranquility this small corner of Mother Nature provides.. The real purpose is still not clear. But I'd like to think that there is a higher purpose for all of these things we do and planning to do over there and not just so we can enjoy our retirement.. But for now, we will continue to enjoy this corner by loving and caring for it for as long as we can..Hoping that when we are are no longer in this life, some others will continue to care for it and value it and benefit from it's generosity.. I hope they feel the love of Mother Nature and the love we put into it.. And most of all, I hope they would feel as grateful as we are for the privilege.. Have you ever experienced doing things for a purpose, and then to end up wondering for what purpose?.. Bess.
