In my later years I wanted to just get back to the basics of life and really take in the simple things in life. I wanted to learn to manifest beauty and to grow it in a simple yet effective way. To reconnect with the earth and mother nature. I found starting a rose garden was the perfect way to do this. I wake up each day and go out into the crisp air to water them before the sun comes up. Sure I could install an automatic sprinkler system but then I’d miss my morning fun, and my nurturing the garden!
