If I was to tell anyone just how blessed I feel gardening and digging in the dirt, I would suggest them to read your post and lose themselves in your words and reverie just like I did.

But in fall with the wind blowing and the sun bright but not overbearing, I often just find myself standing and looking at something and suddenly, 10 minutes have gone by.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01029244567686979589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1467954833951005991.post-18902810020146259712008-09-22T16:20:00.000-07:002008-09-22T16:20:00.000-07:00Thank you for your lovely comment.

I loved the way you described how gardening time opens up into spiritual space. And I think we all have to trust that whatever we do with good intent, however imperfect, will be some contribution.
