As I work in theLarkwhistle Garden in Dyer's Bay, Ontario, I take my time and the garden is teaching me about

working with the earth. I recognize that there will be both successes and failures and there are many variables(变量)that affect them both.

The quality of the seeds planted has a bearing on how the plants will grow. The weather can be too hot, too

cold, or exactly right, and usually varies between all three. Weeds seem to grow in the garden and need to be

taken care of, pulled, and removed to ensure they do not eat into the fruits, vegetables, and flowers we have so

lovingly planted.

I take time to stand back and rest, and to observe the plants and how they are growing. Each plant is unique

and develops in the way that is best for them. Some have large broad leaves to shadow their fruit from the severe

rays of the sun, while other plants are more open, their fruit needing the light to grow and ripen.

Getting my hands dirty, feeling the sweat on my forehead, and the strength and flexibility of my body as I dig,

bend and work under the warm summer sun, reminds me I am alive in ways I would not have remembered sitting

on the couch.

It is attractive to move things around, to transplant, and to disturb the natural order of how plants grow. The

garden teaches me that it is important to know when to disturb things and when to let them be. The garden's life

cycle follows a pattern that is repeated according to laws of nature, birth, growth, and then dies and it teaches us

to accept this fact.

C

My family and I never talked about school as the ticket to a future. I was in theclassroom, but I wasn't there

to learn to write, read or even speak. When it was my turn to read, I wanted to hide. I was 13 years old, but I

already hated being who I was.

I had an English teacher, Mr.Creech, who knew I couldn't read. In one of my first lessons the teacher said that

anyone who had a reading age below six had to stand up. I felt so embarrassed. But at the same time, it made me

realize that I needed to change the situation. I was determined it wouldn't happen again. Later that day, Mr.Creech

encouraged me and promised he would try his best to help me learn to read. From then on, I never gave up
