IMAGES AND WORDS - AT THE GATE

We are standing at the gate of change, says   Milli  who is our host this week. This is our last post on Multiply, before officially moving to Blogger, so I am cross posting today. 

I had to search high and low for a gate, that was even remotely suitable, eventually gave up and went and took a picture of my Gate into My Vegetable Garden. Now I love that gate, Russell made it for me, when first I started planting as the dogs continually was in and out , digging, eating my compost and horse manure and worse defecating in my rows of neatly planted carrots and leeks.



I also found another suitable quote, which is very apt in our move from Multiply, where everybody seems to have different ideas as to where we should go and how and with whomever. 



No one can persuade another to change. Each of us guards a gate of change that can only be opened from the inside. We cannot open the gate of another, either by argument or emotional appeal. 
Marilyn Ferguson 


Until next time, have a lovely week.

  2. Like the peek into your vegetable world - the play of shadows makes it look very mysterious.

  4. Love your photo Marianne, your veggie garden is looking great and that sure is a nice sturdy gate Russell built for you.

    Here, our veggie plants are at the seedling stage, still very cold winds and not a lot of sun.
