In the bright afternoon autumn sunshine, I assessed the remnants of the plants on our deck. Removing those who have given their all, I rearranged those that are hardy enough to remain. Grabbing the broom, I swept up the fallen red maple leaves and debris.
Newly refreshed, the deck awaits decorations for the upcoming holidays. Soon there will be Evergreen garlands and poinsettias lit up with 1000 lights to brighten the dark. The process of ungardening opens the space for renewal. 
What do you need to ungarden in your life? What can you envision filling the space in the future? Ki to Happiness removes the remnants of past efforts, retains the hardy, and refreshes for renewal.
