Today, I wanted
to write/speak/read all about gardens and feels. But the air outside is thick with heat and smoke, so… my thoughts are on fire. I’m feeling terrible
for Canada. So many flames. According to the weather forecast, Canada (and my bit of
New York City) will be getting some rain this weekend and early next week.
I’m keeping my fingers crossed and my heart hopeful… for cleansing rain.
While we
wait/spell/pray for the cooling showers, my dear poets and storytellers, I invite
you to find inspiration in one (or all) of
the following quotes:
“Gardening
is not a rational act. Margaret
Atwood
“Gardens are not made by singing ‘Oh, how beautiful,’ and sitting in the shade.” Rudyard Kipling

Thank you Magaly - I hope good health is with you this week - Jae
ReplyDeleteThanks a million, Jae. Your wish mean the world.
DeleteWe are getting perhaps a little too much rain here this winter (in a flood-prone area, so it makes everyone uneasy). Wish I could send you some, and some of our colder temperatures too.
ReplyDeleteHere is hoping the universe balances things out!
DeleteJoining Jae in wishing you improving health, renewed energy every day ~ wishes do come true💓
ReplyDeleteThat makes three of us. And you know what they say about things in threes!
DeleteWish we could send you our rain. It has been a very wet winter down under. Keep cool and best to stay indoors in excessive heat.
ReplyDeleteClimate change is making a mess of things, isn't it? Sigh. And you're so right--staying indoors is the healthiest option when things are like this.
