Spring Flows Internal
“If you become a helper of hearts, springs of wisdom will flow from your heart.” – Rumi
An anticipated well-spring of enjoyment is bubbling up inside me as I think about the place I’ve recently signed-up to volunteer. I look forward to getting my hands and heart into it now that spring is here.
Doing something for the benefit of others increases the “happiness effect” in our own lives. It takes us outside of ourselves reaping great internal rewards. As like with many who offer their time in service to others, I usually can’t contain the fountain of intrinsic blessings that come forth from my efforts.
I know you will find as much enjoyment and fulfilment at Ladew Gardens in MD as I have found at Blithewold Mansion and Arboretum in RI. It fills me with such happiness and well being just to be on the grounds among the beauty and history of this wonderful spot and my guess is you will feel the same at Ladew. Enjoy!
I guess our parents gardening interests rubbed off on us. And that is a good thing!
