I belong to two book clubs, and once a year, we get together in December to share inspirations. These can be poems, stories, readings and even songs. One dear friend sang us a Santa Mouse song. It is extraordinary. The Garden of Daily Living message touched me the most, and I thought it would be an excellent way to start our year together. I researched and could not find the original author. It is a simple message that goes straight to the heart.
“A GARDEN FOR DAILY
LIVING”
Plant three rows of peas:
Peas of mind
Peas of heart
Peas 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 happy
Lettuce love one another
No garden should be without turnips:
Turnip for service when
needed
Turnip to help one another
Turnip the music and
dance
To enjoy our garden
We must have thyme:
Thyme for fun
Thyme for rest
Thyme for ourselves
Water freely with patience
and
Cultivate with love.
Peace, hugs, and enjoyment from my home to yours, Sandy
