Hi Woodgsnome,
I really love the fact you mentioned our old favourite 'The Secret Garden' - the suggestion of Mary to leave part of the garden as a bit wild, it is so appropriate, and I use imagery to conjure up that garden regularly when I'm meditating, and imagine all of us enjoying being in that garden and exploring it - having different areas to seek solitude, but also times and experiences when we interact with each other and talk about gardening, or enjoying the garden or just playing (as often I imagine us all at younger ages - allowing our child parts to enjoy the freedom of being in a place where we are allowed and encouraged to be free to express ourselves.
Anyway, I very much appreciate you sharing what you said. I very much hope we will be surprised and delighted by new discoveries - that sounds really great.

Feeling optimistic today. I like that feeling. I hope it stays with me.
