Hello everyone,
Yesterday I showed you my big garden...
Today "It's the Little Things that Matter" and
I have been contemplating about what is really
important in life. Since my birthday a few weeks ago I
think about how long will I be able to do such physical work?
I love to garden. Planting, weeding and always changing the
garden decor from one spot to another. Someday, will I have a little garden?
Maybe so...Today I'm so grateful to have my Fern Grotto.
It brings me great pleasure.
I love the assortment of plants I can grow in this
small place. I have a Lemon tree; Jade plant; a variety of Ferns;
different kinds of Ivy and my Angel begonia.
If you want to live more, you must master the
art of appreciating the little, everyday blessings
of life. This is not altogether a golden world,
but there are countless gleams of gold to be
discovered in it if we give our minds to them.

Thank you for visiting today and have a great week.
Joyously,
Betty

ReplyDeleteI always wanted a lemon tree but we don't have the climate for it and sadly I don't have a very green thumb :)
Such sweet garden offerings. Thank you so very much for sharing this wonderful post at Thoughts of Home on Thursday.
ReplyDeleteI love that your pretty greens are called the Fern Grotto. And the angels are perfect there.
ReplyDeleteYou are so wise- yes, it is the little things.
