Plant a garden with seeds of friendship

Plant three rows of peas:
Peas of mind
Peas of heart
Peas of soul

Plant four rows of squash:
Squash gossip
Squash indifference
Squash grumbling
Squash selfishness

Plant four rows of lettuce:
Lettuce be faithful
Lettuce be kind
Lettuce be happy
Lettuce love one another

No garden should be without turnips:
Turnip for service when needed
Turnip to help one another
Turnip the music and dance

A garden must have some thyme:
Thyme for God
Thyme for study
Thyme for prayer

Thyme for rest
Thyme for fun
Thyme for yourself

Water freely with patience
and cultivate with love.
There will be much fruit in your garden
Because you reap what you sow.

~ author unknown ~

And I will always guide you and satisfy you with good things. I will keep you strong and well. You will be like a garden that has plenty of water, like a spring of water that never goes dry.

— Isaiah 58:11
