“The most precious gift we can offer others
is our presence.
When mindfulness
embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers.” --Thich Nhat Hanh
Since it
references two of my favorite things (mindfulness and flowers), there is no doubt I heart the quote above!
Today, Mark and I
will sojourn, about 30 minutes from home, to lovely Schedel Gardens. I have meant to visit this enchanting botanical garden for some time now, but never did. Being that 2012 is the year of no regrets, I included this worthwhile endeavor as one of my personal goals for the month of June.
While at the gardens, today, this girl hopes to make like a flower and bloom (mindfully, of course!). I will include plenty of photos on the Tickled Pink Woman Facebook page (I've already posted a few pics from this week's Zonta Summer Solstice Wine Soiree there)! Oh, and the lovely lily featured above, she's from my own garden (smile).
Enjoy your
weekend! T.
