The Keepers
The keeper of the garden builds an everlasting environment that is filled with beauty and peace. In the middle of that garden is a haven . . . a birdhouse, a safe place for fledglings to grow and flourish before taking off on their own. The gardener provides nourishment to feed his feathered friends, to make them grow strong and healthy. He protects them from predators, watching from afar, not interfering with the balance of nature. They flutter and fly and sing their sweet songs from the safety of their home in the garden, and then, one day, they are gone. The keeper of the garden experiences a moment of sadness at the loss, but he knows that he has done well.
We are, you and I, the keepers of the garden of life and learning, protecting the sanctity and serenity of the "schoolhouse." We build an educational environment that is filled with opportunity and experience. We provide nourishment to feed our cherished children, to make their minds grow strong and healthy. We protect them from outside forces and influence, watching them from afar, letting them try out their wonderful wings of independence. They sing their sweet songs of newfound knowledge and then one day, they are gone. We, too, experience a moment of sadness at the loss, but we know that we have done well as keepers of the garden of life.
