This picture is a reproduction of one painted by Sina March, which you can see under Paintings and Poetry at http://SinaMarch.com. Some of her colorful work graces our walls. A Fragment by Regena Larrabee Seehausen (1964) was the inspiration for this painting and reads:
“Delicate and fragile Is my memory of you As a porcelain teacup Which time withdrew From my still thirsting lips.”
It is now five days after the above garden picture was taken, and there has not been much growth in the last week. After trying week without special watering, I went out to water this PM, and will water twice a day hereafter. It may be that my new lead-free planting mix with wood organic matter added to sand does not hold enough water to carry the plants to the end of the day. If this fails to make a difference, I will check some other things. Our radishes should be nearly ready to eat by now.
It has been said that if something is neither functional, nor beautiful, we should not keep it in our homes. We can extend this to say that if something is neither functional, nor beautiful, we should not keep it written down, or in our brain. Similarly, somebody said that if something is true, that is good, and if something is beautiful, that is also good. If it is true and beautiful, then that is fantastic!
We can strive in these directions, because then it will help us as individuals, and help those around us. Our healthy brains in our healthy bodies record everything, and leave records wherever we go.
