Gardening Quote of the Day

"Life is like a garden, you reap just what you sow, All you tend with loving care will multiply and grow. So plant some “peas” called pleasantness, praise and patience too, Those qualities just sparkle like grass wet with morning dew. “Lettuce” not be so competitive with people that we meet, Your fellow man is not someone you need to “squash” or “beet”. "Turnip” that joy, share a hug, put on a sunny grin, For what sprouts in life’s great garden are the seeds that you put in! "
