A Calm Connection

My spirit was lifted

and my soul nourished

by my time in the garden.

It gave me a calm connection

with all of life,

and an awareness

that remains with me now,

long after

leaving the garden.

Nancy Ross

There is something

of the marvelous

in all things of nature.

Gaertner To live a life of gratitude is to open our eyes to the countless ways in which we are supported by the world around us. Such a life provides less space for our suffering because our attention is more balanced. We are more often occupied with noticing what we are given, thanking those who have helped us, and repaying the world in some concrete way for what we are receiving. Gregg Krech Explore This Website
