A gift today

Monday's are always a bit tough for me. I work in oncology and it takes me a couple of days to get used to the sickness and people dying. Well, I never get used to it...just adjust to it. There are people who run into me when they check out that can totally turn my day around. I had one today. A woman who is fighting breast cancer stopped by to schedule a new appointment and dropped this sweet message off for me. It made a bad day sunny so I wanted to share it. Being a gardener made it very special.



For the Garden of Your Daily Living

Plant three rows of peas:
Peace of mind
Peace of heart
Peace of soul

Plant four rows of squash
Squash gossip
Squash indifference
Squash grumbling
Squash Selfishness

Plant four rows of lettuce
Lettuce be faithful
Lettuce be kind
Lettuce be patient
Lettuce really love one another

No garden is without turnips
Turnip for meetings
Turnip for service
Turnip to help one another

To conclude our Garden we must have Thyme:
Thyme for G*d
Thyme for each other
Thyme for family
Thyme for friends

Water freely with patience and cultivate with love. There is
Much fruit in your garden because you reap what you sow.
