One of life’s simple pleasures is the planting of a seed or plant in the dirt and watching it grow. Our very existence depends on those fruits; after all, the first garden was a perfect one from our Creator. After a hard day’s work, it is relaxing to put hands to dirt and tend the garden. If it is well-kept, it will give more than one can eat. This gives opportunity to share with others. As you can see from the photo of my son’s garden, it is a work of pride with nary a weed.
