Building Paradise

I look at our backyard and I remember that we rent the house we live in. I look at our backyard and I see an expanse of grass. I look at our yard and I see work that needs to be done. I look at our yard and I see a paradise. A place we can call home and envelop ourselves in a bit of nature right outside our door. We have many reasons not to improve the land we live on but we have many more reasons to make it better than it is.

My thoughts are constantly stirring with new ideas and garden plans of how the next section of yard might look. Yes, we are fortunate to have a flat city lot where we can do just about anything when compared to a sloping lot but sloping lots are gems of another category but we aren’t covering that right now. Having a few small areas and sights like these keep me motivated to continue building our own paradise.
