"I am inwardly fashioned for faith, not for fear.
Fear is not my native land; faith is.
I am so made that worry and anxiety are sand in the machinery of life; faith is the oil.
I live better by faith and confidence than by fear, doubt and anxiety.
In anxiety and worry, my being is gasping for breath--these are not my native air.
But in faith and confidence, I breathe freely--these are my native air."
- E. Stanley Jones
Had me a walk-a-talk at Botanic Gardens today with my aunts and parents, at first in the healing garden, then past the symphony lake, ending up at the visitor centre. It's been about a decades since i was last at BG. Beautiful with surprising splendid sculptures along the picturesque pathways amongst fascinating flora. Earned me a few mosquito bites on my legs and bird poop on my t-shirt. Concluded with a delectable brunch at holland close. All in all, a fruitful morning. :D
