We had a front yard like millions of other front yards across Germany, boring, useless lawn. Then my landlord, and one of my closest friends, turned it into a wild flower meadow. Don’t get me wrong now, it took a ton of work to get where it is today (3rd year now) but it was totally worth it. Lawn is useless and doesn’t provide anything, except work. Wild flower meadows provide a habitat for all the insects we depend on, like bees, bumble bees, etc. And it looks so much better.
A Monday is what you choose to be. Fill it with positive things, like smile at a stranger, cuddle you dog or cat, take a walk without your phone (yeah fucking social media can live without your attention for an hour), sit in the sun and have a coffee or a tea. Don’t let the Monday control you, instead you control the Monday.
