God Almighty first planted a garden. And indeed, it is the purest of human pleasures. Life begins the day you start a garden. There are no gardening mistakes, only experiments. “A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in"-Greek Proverb.

The glory of gardening: hands in the dirt, head in the sun, heart with nature. To nurture a garden is to feed not just the body, but the soul. “My garden is my most beautiful masterpiece”- Claude Monet. Gardening simply does not allow one to be mentally old, because too many hopes and dreams are yet to be realized. Gardeners, I think, dream bigger dreams than emperors. We must cultivate our own garden.
When man was put in the garden of Eden he was put there so that he should work, which proves that man was not born to rest. A garden requires patient labor and attention. Plants do not grow merely to satisfy ambitions or to fulfill good intentions. They thrive because someone expended effort on them. There is no gardening without humility. Nature is constantly sending even its oldest scholars to the bottom of the class for some egregious blunder.
The single greatest lesson the garden teaches is that our relationship to the planet need not be zero-sum, and that as long as the sun still shines and people still can plan and plant, think and do, we can, if we bother to try, find ways to provide for ourselves without diminishing the World. Trees and plants always look like the people they live with, somehow.
