I've come to recognize what I call my 'inside interests.' Telling stories. And helping people tell their stories is a sort of interpersonal gardening.

Gardening is not trivial. If you believe that it is, closely examine why you feel that way.

The fact is, gardening is just the opposite - it is, or should be, a central, basic expression of human life. Andrew Weil on gardening
