Of prancing Poetry...
-Emily Dickinson
Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances of survival of life on earth as much as evolution to a vegetarian diet.
-Albert Einstein
How wonderful that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.
- Anne Frank
No race can prosper until it learns there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem.
- Booker T. Washington
Each small task of everyday life is part of the total harmony of the universe.
- St. Theresa of Lisieux
No ray of sunshine is ever lost, but the green which it awakens into existence needs time to sprout, and it is not always granted for the sower to see the harvest. All work that is worth anything is done in faith.
- Albert Schweitzer
Tyro - Pronunciation: \ˈtī-(ˌ)rō\ noun Medieval Latin, from Latin tiro, tyro. A beginner in learning: novice. Synonyms: see amateur. Yes. That would be me...
About Me
- Tyro
- I started the Tyro Gardener blog so that I could share my garden with my mom, who lives too far away to ever see it in person. I love you, Mom!
