Lisa Wingate
“Not appreciating the noise until she was surrounded by silence.”
Lisa Wingate, Tending Roses

Lisa Wingate
“The same road always leads to the same place. If we get on it expecting to go somewhere different, we'll be disappointed, won't we? As you said, it isn't very smart.

...Do the same things, get the same results. Simple, stupid.”
Lisa Wingate, Tending Roses

Lisa Wingate
“Pride and resentment do not create bread that will rise. Bread, like a good life, can only be created by honest measure, patience, warmth, and time.”
Lisa Wingate, Tending Roses

Lisa Wingate
“INDIAN wisdom says our lives are rivers. We are born somewhere small and quiet and we move toward a place we cannot see, but only imagine. Along our journey, people and events flow into us, and we are created of everywhere and everyone we have passed. Each event, each person, changes us in some way. Even in times of drought we are still moving and growing, but it is during seasons of rain that we expand the most—when water flows from all directions, sweeping at terrifying speed, chasing against rocks, spilling over boundaries. These are painful times, but they enable us to carry burdens we could never have thought possible.”
Lisa Wingate, Tending Roses

Lisa Wingate
“To my grandmothers,
for tilling the soil in which we grew and for watering our roots with stories of all the old things”
Lisa Wingate, Tending Roses
