The young Gardening Angel reminds us that to grow spiritually we must dig in the dirt and plant the seeds gently and with encouragement. Then comes the task of getting on our hands and knees and pulling the weeds. We may even have to nourish the seedlings with our tears. Eventually the light and warmth of the sun, together with our efforts, will produce the beautiful fruits of the spirit. However, in the summer, the population swells and the area is buzzing with tourists.
Many people have summer homes and cottages, their retreat from the big cities.
Many cottages are filled with antiques, chintz fabrics and lace curtains, and Victorian gardens decorate the landscape. Cottages are comfortable and worry free, places where we can be ourselves, enjoying our families and friends. The Cottage Angel protects this magic place. She reminds us to be carefree and flowing, to enjoy the days blessings. She tells us all is well.
