Beautiful, yes.. :) As a person who loves creating and tending to a garden space, this practice takes form for me in fully appreciating others' gardens, architecture, and landscaping as a passer-by. These are an important source of inner nutrients; I refer to such impressions as 'borrowed landscapes'.

You don't OWN your things; they OWN you. (insurance, care, upkeep)

Learnt this early in life
My children always had other children’ toys to share
They appreciated the Camaraderie as well as making the friendship along with playing with their toys this saves both of our friendships a lot of materialistic gathering

[DebbHoffmann-Williams]

So insightful as always. My NOW is much more interesting and i am learning from you at the same time

[jodiebienvenu]

Money is not bad- when u work for it! It’s the LOVE of money that people keep from you and deny your VOICE in the matter
