It is so very rewarding and it really does calm the mind and spirit and we also indulge in its beauty and fragrance.<br />Even on our bikes we inhaled the special smell of the fields, where the wheat already has been harvested. The birds chatter and it makes us so very calm and happy. That creates sweet dreams as well.<br />Your photos are poetry in itself!<br />Hugs,<br />MarietteMariette VandenMunckhof-Vedderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16877699174880945452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-907830779862347023.post-49167136587829563922016-06-20T22:36:45.163+02:002016-06-20T22:36:45.163+02:00Wonderful to spend the day in the garden with your...Wonderful to spend the day in the garden with your roses, sweet Madelief!

We've had so much rain this past week, but fortunately I staked my roses so they didn't bend with the heaviness of the rain on the delicate petals.

Yesterday, my husband bought me a pink rose CLIMBER that we are planting today over an arbor in our garden that has been bare for at least 15 years. Just sitting in its pot waiting to be planted, this rose climber has made a difference in the appearance of the garden. And stopping to smell the roses in life is true living, true acceptance of both beautiful and unattractive, in order to really appreciate what is around us.
