Im an old member just coming back after being gone for pretty long time. I dont even know how long. I took time to care for my younger brother with multiple myloma and my mother with pulmonary fibrosis. Last year I lost both of them within 6 months of each other. I found myself alone and being over come with depression I let almost everything just die or go to waste. It's been a very hard struggle but Im slowly recovering. I've made some changes to help me cope and actually look forward to things once again. One of the first things I knew would make me myself again was to get back to the garden. I got a birthday notice just today from this website so I new that was a sign that Im Back. Thanks for reaching out; I needed a hand covered in dirt to help me climb up.

We were given two hands to hold, two eyes to see, two ears to listen & two legs to walk. But why were we given only one heart?
The other heart was given to another for us to find.
