Re: gardening's implications


Hello Isabelle,
    I honestly believe that I learned more about people in my garden over the past
15 years, or so, then from people themselves in the previous (unmentionable)
years. Patience, acceptance, giving them all the encouragement one can and
allowing them to bloom in their own time and way. Recognizing weeds, but allowing
them to pull their own... when they choose to weed..
    Not easy being a gardener or a human being... but sure is rewarding.
