" TENDING THE SOUL " MY PHOTO, ©

Image may contain: plant, flower, nature and outdoor

Just by amassing 

a plethora of material goods in life 

without tending his spiritual needs

one 

can never succeed in enriching his 

soul !

- We come to this earth naked and toothless ... most likely we will leave this earth the same way ... - Some has to collect material things ... I think it's a disease ... glad I didn't suffer from it :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
