I was at Sissinghurst Gardens the other day. I was deeply touched by the sheer wonder of it all. I couldn’t help but think of the link between wonder and compassion, because that’s what I felt too, a wave of compassion for it all. No doubt, wonder and compassion are inextricably linked.
I like the way you think. My first trip to a botanical garden, I thought I’d be bored – I came away amazed.

Yes, I agree. When the mind is open enough to wonder, then it’s more likely to be compassionate.

I never thought I would enjoy visiting a garden, but I was wrong. Maybe you are right, Don. The photo is lovely.
