“Let every Christian be a gardener so that he and she and the whole of creation, which groans in expectation of the Spirit's final harvest, may inherit Paradise. If we Christian's truly treasure the hope that one day we, like Adam and the penitent thief, will walk alongside the One who caused even the dead wood of the Cross to blossom with flowers, then we must also imitate the Master's art and make the desolate earth grow green.” IfsMayArtWholeEarthChristianSpiritGrowsWalksCreationFlowerMastersOne DayExpectationsCrossesGreenFinalsWoodsTreasureParadiseAdamThievesHarvestGardenerDesolate Book:Inheriting Paradise: Meditations on Gardening Source: Inheriting Paradise: Meditations on Gardening

“The French are not rude. They just happen to hate you. But that is no reason to bypass this beautiful country, whose master chefs have a well-deserved worldwide reputation for trying to trick people into eating snails. Nobody is sure how this got started. Probably a couple of French master chefs were standing around one day, and they found a snail, and one of them said: 'I bet that if we called this something like `escargot,' tourists would eat it.' Then they had hearty laugh, because 'escargot' is the French word for 'fat crawling bag of phlegm.'” PeopleIfsTryingWellsSaidCountryReasonHappensBeautifulHateFoundLaughingMastersCoupleOne DayEatingStandingTricksFatsReputationBagsNo ReasonCulinaryChefRudeHate YouTouristsCrawlingSnailBypassHeartyBeautiful CountryEscargot Book:Dave Barry's Only Travel Guide You'll Ever Need Source: Dave Barry's Only Travel Guide You'll Ever Need

“They say the full potential of the human being is called enlightenment, which is infinite consciousness, infinite happiness, zero negativity, zero dying, complete freedom, total fulfillment, and being at one with everything. You can say it's God realization, or you can say you sit at the feet of the Lord as master of all you survey. You could say it's totality, total knowledge, and that you are that totality.
