Hi! I've just found your blog through a link on Talj's and I am really drawn to your love of gardening.

I am in no way green fingered, but I love taking photos of flowers and plants! I'll be checking back in here often :)

Great shot and quote as always Ruth! I hope that you and Mick are having a nice weekend xx

Tenderness contains an element of sadness. It is not the sadness of feeling sorry for yourself or feeling deprived, but it is a natural situation of fullness. You feel so full and rich, as if you were about to shed tears. Your eyes are full of tears, and the moment you blink, the tears will spill out of your eyes and roll down your cheeks. In order to be a good warrior, one has to feel this sad and tender heart. Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche
