Over the last year I've noticed many people do not confront trauma directly to deal with it.  An appreciation of beautiful things, like gardens, gifts, quilts, all of which involve creativity have played a role in healing people. 

This picture is of a local passionate gardener, Dina, and a short digital story on her will be posted soon.  Gardens are creative places and as she explains somewhere to find solace and renewal.  Dina's story, like Christine's, was featured in my Smile Within Exhibition.
