Gardens Are Great!

Here at the TaliaSafa homestead we have a bountiful garden that reminds us everyday of how grateful we are to be alive. Watching it grow and develop also reminds how our own soul needs constant attention and upkeep, spiritual sunshine and rain. We are all like God’s children in His Spiritual Garden.

“O God!  Educate these children.  These children are the plants of Thine orchard, the flowers of Thy meadow, the roses of Thy garden.  Let Thy rain fall upon them; let the Sun of Reality shine upon them with Thy love.  Let Thy breeze refresh them in order that they may be trained, grow and develop, and appear in the utmost beauty.  Thou art the Giver.  Thou art the Compassionate.” ‘Abdu’l-Bahá
