I lean my head back, close my eyes, and breathe, and then as the novelty of sitting still wears off, I try to turn my attention to God and I try to pray.

I can no more tell a person how...

We are Salvage Gardeners. History, Mission, Vision. Story Behind the Art. Education & Training. Calendar & Events. Words won’t do. August 5, 2015. I’m often not short on speech.

Shut up. Listen up. Get up. – Salvage Garden
http://salvagegarden.org/2015/08/shut-up-listen-up-get-up
We are Salvage Gardeners. History, Mission, Vision. Story Behind the Art. Education & Training. Calendar & Events. Shut up. Listen up. Get up. August 11, 2015.
