"It's all about the roots." "Because I know my life on its own; it's ordinary. It's not necessarily book-worthy." "I just kept searching for some word that would sort of tie all the pieces of my life together." "They are the ones who are willing to sink their roots deep into a place to love it, to take care of it, to change it for the better. But even while they're tending it and cultivating it, they're letting that place affect them and change them, and make an impact on them." "I think of it as a legacy that's been handed down to me." "And that love, I realize now was like a seed planted in me that over time when the season was right, it grew and ripened." "At some point, people will close the book, step outside and listen to the trees, and listen to maybe the God who would whisper to them as they enjoy the piece of shade a tree offers." "But for me, it was always a place where I did not feel that fit." "I think it has helped me just connect the dots of my life." "My life is a good story written by a great author; my maker, our Creator." "The setting of our own story is important, and we get to shape it, and we should recognize how it shapes us." "It's been a process for me of letting go of those rights, but accepting the responsibilities of a place." "But what I have learned here about Placemaking is that we don't do it alone, that actually it's best done in community." "Sometimes a period of living without can really be a gift." "Can I clear space for peace and beauty?" "Let's live by trees planted by water." "God used that place to heal us really and impart His peace to us." "He (Jesus) is the perfect gardener."    What has your story gifted you?
