May 2017
 


We are so blessed to be surrounded
by the colours, sounds and fragrance
of this glorious season.
Birds are singing and building their nests, 
fox kits are scampering in the field, 
and petals are bursting forth...

May you all be blessed
by nature's wonder and beauty.

From Our Garden 
To Yours...



   

From Mary Ward...

It is ingratitude if one thinks that everything is chance 
just because one is not aware that everything 
can come from the hand of God;
for it is written, that no sparrow falls to the ground 
without God knowing (Mt. 10:29) and for me it is true 
and is the easiest way to virtue if we accept everything 
from the hand of God, be it ever so little.
Mary Ward 1585-1645

Contemplations...

"I believe a leaf of grass
is no less than a journey-work of the stars."
Walt Whitman
 
 
 

"When the world is too much with me,
I head out to the magic forest to listen to the silence
which is not silent at all."
Cara Moulds
