Earlier this year I started a twitter feed on #thingstocultivate. Today I want to share with you those ponderings.
But firstly….let’s take a look at the word Cultivate from the dictionary:
cul-ti-vate [kuhl-tuh-veyt]
verb (used with object), -va·ted, -va·ting
1. to prepare and work on (land) in order to raise crops; till.
2. to use a cultivator on.
3. to promote or improve the growth of (a plant, crop, etc.) by labor and attention.
4. to produce by culture: to cultivate a strain of bacteria.
5. to develop or improve by education or training; train; refine: to cultivate a singing voice.
