quote from book on loan

Sometimes I have loved the peacefulness of an ordinary Sunday. It is like standing in a newly planted garden after a warm rain. You can feel the silent and invisible life. All it needs from you is that you take care not to trample on it.

from Gilead by Marilynne Robinson

I couldn't have said it better myself...even the part about the rain!
