This garden is your life. Of course, there are the occasional weeds—but more than anything, this garden is filled with so much life!

Charity is the entrance to the garden.

Each of us is like seed, planted by the Good Gardener so we might grow into something majestic.

This plant represents what's happening inside of you. The world, like the soil, is cold and dark—layered with a history of destruction and death. You were planted in this world to rise above it. Do you not see? The very existence of this darkness gives you the opportunity to become a light to the world.

What I've always found interesting in gardens is looking at what people choose to plant there. What they put in. What they leave out. One small choice and then another, and soon there is a mood, an atmosphere, a series of limitations, a world.
