These pictures are from my peace preserve :) Looking at them I realize that Nature has no worries about the future, no stress, no fear or anger - it's about being in the present.
It's so true ... one of the most peaceful parts of my day is when I'm walking around my garden admiring all that nature has to offer. Lovely photos ... white is one of my favourite colours in the garden. Thanks for visiting my blog ... we seem to have quite a few plants in common.
Among other things, I am a recreational gardener based in Delhi. I’ve lived my childhood in a small town, large spaces surrounded with green and grown up seeing my father’s passion for gardening. All who visited us had great things to say about our garden while my dad would beam with joy at those reviews. All conversations at home circled around plants while dad would speak with conscious pride. Back then, I never really understood his motivations, the manic hours he spent gardening, until I moved to Delhi and found myself space-strapped. Living in Delhi today, made me yearn for a patch of green in my house, and that’s where the gene popped up.
I must mention my husband here who’s has been more than a participant, prodding me all along. He’s more creative and gentle than I am while I oscillate between brutal and gentle ways of cultivation. What started out with a few odd container plants has become a garden welling over with herbs and shrubs, and some trees too.
Here, as the ‘the urban gardener‘, I’ll share my experiences, tips and tricks I’ve known or practised to help you with the challenges of furnishing an urban garden.
Very beautiful blooms! White blooms are one of my favourites. I like to see them in the dark as well. Most of them glows!
ReplyDeleteI find just not peace but very distressing when I am in contact with nature. They really have a calming effect on me. Glad they work for you too :-D
Beautiful, and how true. :)
ReplyDeleteNature soothes - that's why we have to take time to pause and wonder and admire:))
