A Journal of Days: Growing, Talking, Hiding

Growing, Talking, Hiding

1. The garden "morphs" each time I work out there. This is the beauty of gardening; that it is ever changing.
2. I realize that I talk to the plants. Sometimes by telepathy : )
3. A little mouse has been playing hide-n-seek with me. First I glimpse it under a bush. The next day it runs from under the lawnmower. Where will he scurry from next?

I love the gardens at this time of year. Every day tells a new tale!

"The world is fairly studded and strewn with pennies cast broadside from a generous hand. But who gets excited by a mere penny?...It is dire poverty indeed when a man is so malnourished and fatigued that he won't stoop to pick up a penny. But if you cultivate a healthy poverty and simplicity, so that finding a penny will literally make your day, then, since the world is in fact planted with pennies, you have with your poverty bought a lifetime of days. It is that simple. what you see is what you get."
