“The holiday season promotes a heightened sense of community. It draws our chins up and helps us look above and over the limiting fence of our own events, activities and preoccupations. The opportunity for a heroic gesture can tap you quietly on the shoulder in the midst of a holiday bustle. If you are attentive, you will notice the gentle touch and will be able to respond. Remember... There are no small acts of kindness. Every compassionate act makes large the world.” IfsWorldLooksHelpingAbleRememberOpportunityCommunityKindnessEventsActivityQuietDrawsSeasonsShouldersGentleHolidayMidstCompassionateHeroicGesturesFenceChinsPreoccupationActs Of KindnessHoliday SeasonBustleSmall ActsSmall Acts Of KindnessChin UpGentle Touch Author:Mary Anne Radmacher
“Don’t worry about being able to identify each of these plants (in your designs for clients). The world is full of botanists and horticulturists. All you have to do is design. You don’t have to be a botanist; you don’t have to be a bulldozer driver; you don’t have to be a fence builder; you don’t have to be an architect. What the designer has to do is look at the relationships.” WorldLooksAbleWorryDesignPlantDesignerDriversArchitectClientsFenceBuilderBulldozers Author:Bill Mollison
