“Connect
with nature, hold it in your hand, appreciate the beauty as well as the
fragrance, really get in touch with what these plants and their flowers have to
offer, and understand why… One does not need to have a garden to connect with
nature; I often bring the garden to my people. And once the beauty of nature is
held in ones' hand, one has a wonderful opportunity to understand the patience
and respect that is needed to tend to a living thing...”
