the garden path

I love this piece written by Louise Erdrich for the NY Times magazine.
Published in 1996, I've kept it all these years 
and take it out of hiding when I'm in need of inspiration and reminding.
Thanks to my mother and grandmother, I have such appreciation and respect
for gardening and the gardener.
I understand what it means to have the beauty of a peony 
or the deliciousness of a tomato take your breath away, 
especially when it's grown in your own garden 
and loved and cared for by your own hands.
The Garden Path subtly reminds us of the importance 
of embracing your life and doing what you love.
Take a read...
