The Secret Garden

A few years ago I was an avid gardener.  I had a large perennial garden which I had created from scratch.  I spent a lot of time with my plants and when we had to move...well... let's just say, I was not happy.  Our new home was meant to be temporary and since I had invested 7 years building my last garden, I was not inclinding to start again.  Luckily, I still had my dog, who required walking every day.  I began to realize, as I walked and walked, that I did have a garden and it was everywhere.
So when I recently came accross this quote from  "The Secret Garden" by Frances Hodgson Burnett it really resonated!  I love the idea that we create our own worlds out of our perceptions and thoughts.  Sometimes we have to loose things, in order to find them.
