Karen Salmonsohn is one of my favorite podcasters.
One of her topics on the show I listened to this morning was how we can learn from everyone including jerks.
She's not a gardener, but related a lesson learned from a man who loved to garden that was sitting next to her on an airplane, and it's a good one:
My number one gardening tip," said the man, "is to recognize that some plants and flowers are only meant to live a certain amount of time -- for a certain season -- and if you try to make them live longer, you will be a bad gardener.
Here's some more of her philosophy.
"When you feel good, you're more likely to show goodwill ... Yes, you have more to give to others when you allow yourself to give guiltlessly to yourself. Meaning? The pursuit of pleasure is not entirely a selfish act ... but a benefit to society!"
I highly recommend you check her out; her writing is full of humor and almost always touches a nerve.

Also loved her post about the Theory of Happiness...
