He's taught me so much throughout the years, about patience, about never giving up hope. <br />I have been broken into pieces and built myself back up.

It's made me appreciate our lives so so much more. <3Marylinhttp://softthistle.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-682149894835348782.post-631563154534428032014-03-06T08:21:01.853+00:002014-03-06T08:21:01.853+00:00I think gardens have a lot to teach us - they are ...I think gardens have a lot to teach us - they are spiritual places...<br />Don't know if you know this quote I used in journal page - keep scrolling, there's a close up of the quote :)<br />http://decide-what-you-want.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/ia-challenge-art-with-heart.htmlClairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11236906641354002595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-682149894835348782.post-59406880722941284072014-03-06T07:27:43.998+00:002014-03-06T07:27:43.998+00:00I had a chaotic childhood which has resulted in me...I had a chaotic childhood which has resulted in me being quite the control freak.
