War is hell, as my friend’s describes his son’s experiences in Iraq on his blog Father At War. Although never having been in a war I can understand a little bit of how this can be. My salvation from these terrible experiences is found for me in people and nature.

Today when I went out to pull, cut and crop in the vegetable garden and rain garden in the front lawn I noticed that the rain garden had different looks from different views. I took a number of pictures which you can find to the side and below. Just as cursed experiences gives me a taste of hell, nature in the our rain garden gives me a taste of heaven.

There are many pictures on this web site like this one of the horrors of war and violence. However, there are many pictures on this web page like those on this posting that show the beauty of nature. As war is to hell, nature is to heaven. Both are present in our lives
