This story is sad and humorous at the same time: "[An elderly parishioner has stunned Spanish cultural officials with an alarming and unauthorised attempt to restore a prized Jesus Christ fresco](http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-19349921?ref=thedailyeudemon.com)." She honestly meant no harm:

This kinda reminds me of the late night line about Ron Paul: "Snoop Dog supports Ron Paul. He agrees with his positions on everything from legalizing marijuana to legalizing marijuana." [Top Ten Marijuana Myths and Facts.](http://www.rollingstone.com/culture/lists/top-10-marijuana-myths-and-facts-20120822/myth-marijuana-prohibition-effectively-protects-kids-19691231?ref=thedailyeudemon.com)

This quote by, [apparently](http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2012/08/borges-on-love-and-loss/261539/?ref=thedailyeudemon.com), Jorge Luis Borges, got me thinking: "So you plant your garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers." The role of the garden plays a big role in western civilization, especially literature. I suspect a person could amass a huge anthology of garden essays, garden poems, and garden quotes. I never gave it much thought before (no doubt because I never gave much thought to gardens until it recently became a near-obsession with me), but it's something I'm going to ponder. . . . and I'm going to delve into my reference library to see what they say about it.
