going slowly




'Working in a garden gives me a profound sense of inner peace. Nothing here is in a hurry. There is no rush toward accomplishment. No blowing of trumpets. Here is the great mystery of life and growth. Everything is changing, growing, aiming at something, but silently, unboastfully, taking its time.'

 - Ruth Stout, 
from 'A YEAR IN MY GARDEN' by Jenny Ferguson
