Status Updates From All Creatures Great and Small

Life was full for me. There were so many things to find out and a lot I had to prove to myself. The days were quick and challenging and they pressed on me with their very newness. But it all stopped here in the garden. Everything seemed to have stopped here a long time ago…it was like suddenly coming across a picture in an old book…I could never quite believe it was there and that I was a part of it. -pp. 44-45

“But, looking around me, I began to feel better. The sunshine beat back from the high old walls, bees droned among the bright masses of flowers. A gentle breeze stirred the withered blooms of a magnificent wistaria, which almost covered the back of the house. There was peace here.” -p. 16

Ahhh a soothing balm after Hum.
