WORTH NOTING...


ADVICE FROM A TREE
Dear Friend,

Stand Tall and Proud
Sink your roots deeply into the Earth
Reflect the light of a greater source
Think long term
Go out on a limb
Remember your place among all living beings
Embrace with joy the changing seasons
For each yields its own abundance
The Energy and Birth of Spring
The Growth and Contentment of Summer
The Wisdom to let go of leaves in the Fall
The Rest and Quiet Renewal of Winter
Feel the wind and the sun
And delight in their presence
Look up at the moon that shines down upon you
And the mystery of the stars at night.
Seek nourishment from the good things in life
Simple pleasures
Earth, fresh air, light
Be content with your natural beauty
Drink plenty of water
Let your limbs sway and dance in the breezes
Be flexible
Remember your roots
Enjoy the view!.

SUMMERTIME IN THE GARDEN



"I AM INCLINED TO THINK THAT THE FLOWERS WE MOST LOVE ARE THOSE WE KNEW WHEN WE WERE YOUNG, WHEN OUR SENSES WERE MOST ACUTE TO COLOR AND TO SMELL AND OUR NATURES MOST LYRICAL."

SUMMERTIME IN THE GARDEN

"FLOWERS HAVE SPOKEN TO ME MORE THAN I CAN TELL IN WRITTEN WORDS.  THEY ARE THE HIEROGLYPHICS OF ANGELS, LOVED BY ALL MEN FOR THE BEAUTY OF THEIR CHARACTER, THOUGH FEW CAN DECIPHER EVEN FRAGMENTS OF THEIR MEANING."
