Tending our own inner gardens

I’ve never been a very good gardener. Each year, I plant some tomatoes. I dutifully turn over the soil and place stakes, mark each variety I’ve planted, and by the time the fruit is ready the garden is overgrown with weeds and the tomatoes are scrawny and in disarray.
Maybe I’m an OK gardener, but a bad weeder. I do know the basics of soil preparation, placement in sunlight and watering schedule. Still, the end result is discouraging.

“A faithful friend is a sturdy shelter…. A faithful friend is beyond price.” These words from the Book of Sirach (6:15-16) resonate with all who know the joy of friendship. A good friend is someone I know well, someone who knows me well. A faithful friend is a trusted companion who enriches my life, as I do for my friend.Unity: The miracle of Pentecost

This week we celebrate the Ascension of the Lord, in which we recall that Jesus left the early Christians in a decisive way after appearing to them in physical form in the days after his death and resurrection.
