You Are A Rose Garden

You have an ethical code that you live by. You think it's important to be a good person.
You are idealistic, and you don't really care if your ideals are unrealistic.

You are a complex and deep person. There are many layers to who you are.
You seek meaning and purpose in every part of your life. An empty life terrifies you.

[Kathy in Alaska]

I can’t help from work because the quizzes are blocked, but go back, pick your garden pic, hit SUBMIT and scroll down. It should say something about getting the HTML. (I think) d:o)

YOU ARE A RENAISSANCE MAN!

You Meaner Beauties of the Night

You meaner beauties of the night,
That poorly satisfy our eyes
More by your number than your light;
You common people of the skies,
What are you when the sun shall rise?

You curious chanters of the wood,
That warble forth Dame Nature's lays,
Thinking your voices understood
By your weak accents; what's your praise
When Philomel her voice shall raise?

You violets that first appear,
By your pure purple mantles known,
Like the proud virgins of the year,
As if the spring were all your own;
What are you when the rose is blown?

So, when my mistress shall be seen
In form and beauty of her mind,
By virtue first, then choice, a queen,
Tell me, if she were not design'd
Th' eclipse and glory of her kind?

Sir Henry Wotton

Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

[SandRat]

I don't have a Garden; MrsSR says I have a Brown Thumb. She claims I would kill artificial plants if I tried to garden. LOL!

[Red_Devil 232]

How can anybody take a test about Gardens when none of the pictures has a dozen tomato plants or peppers in it?

[2111USMC]

You Are Content

You seek balance in your life. Extremes make you uncomfortable.
You are sensitive to criticism and discord. You think people should check their egos and try to get along.

You are positive, optimistic, and downright sanguine. You see the world through rose colored glasses.
There's something special about the way you move. You have a natural grace that others immediately notice.

The Garden Test

The First Rule of Blogthings Is: You Don't Talk About Blogthings

[ZirconEncrustedTweezers]

In that one, sure, but not in any that were in the quiz.

[luvie]

That would be me! All my house plants just fade away in time rather than growing. LOL

Hubby on the other hand is a Master Gardener. Though he has been challenged by the drought we’ve been having.

[2111USMC]

Silly. Vegetables come from the grocery store.

:)

[Kathy in Alaska]

I’m on my way home....then I can see the pictures and I’ll help you see if you passed. LOL! And I can take the test, too.

[ConorMacNessa]

Safe Journey, Kathy!

You Are Good

You have an ethical code that you live by. You think it's important to be a good person.
You are idealistic, and you don't really care if your ideals are unrealistic.

You are a complex and deep person. There are many layers to who you are.
You seek meaning and purpose in every part of your life. An empty life terrifies you.

REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!

Sgt. William R. Wilson, III, USA, 2nd Battalion, 28th Infantry Regiment, 172nd Infantry Brigade, KIA Afghanistan 26Mar2012



I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)

God Of Our Fathers



Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, among these who answered the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!
