are a real solace, friendships are good but action is
better than all.

"It's
incredibly restorative. A lot of people find great solace
in gardening. It teaches self-worth, patience, reliance,
persistence. It teaches us the circle of life. It teaches
us that things die, and from that new things come."
~ Nancy Kuhajda
My
heart, which is so full to overflowing, has often been

"The
true charm of pedestrianism does not lie in the
walking, or in the scenery, but in the talking.
The walking is good to time the movement of the
tongue by, and to keep the blood and the brain
stirred up and active; the scenery and the woodsy
smells are good to bear in upon a man an unconscious
and unobtrusive charm and solace to eye and soul
and sense; but the supreme pleasure comes from
the talk."
-- Mark Twain

Is
solace anywhere more comforting than in the arms
of a sister.
