Immediate Connection

in #stillness8 years ago

I love to go in my garden. It feels like an extra injection of stillness. Just pulling a few weeds can do it. The plants, the ground, flowers, trees--their stillness seems to increase my own, reminding me of the need to be especially attentive to the task at hand. Sometimes the task at hand is simply just to appreciate their dignity, their calm beauty and fearlessness.
