In our gardens this year, may we all
Plant three rows of peas:
Peace of mind
Peace of heart
Peace of soul
Plant four rows of squash:
Squash gossip
Squash indifference
Squash grumbling
Squash selfishness
Plant four rows of lettuce:
Lettuce be faithful
Lettuce be kind
Lettuce be obedient
Lettuce really love one another
No garden is full without turnips:
Turnip for meetings
Turnip for service
Turnip to help one another
To complete our garden, we must have thyme:
Thyme for God
Thyme for study
Thyme for prayer
Water freely with patience and cultivate with love.
I am sending you my best wishes of renewal, prosperity, joy and love in this new year. May this be the first of many joyful days to come.
