Gardens, continued

I am continuing to build gardens in Naga Saphira, laying down grass and reeds, rocks and trees and building a magic underwater garden as well. I have seals dancing, a maypole, a rock to sit on, meditation cushions; I am making this space intensely beautiful. It interests me that the work I'm doing in this virtual space parallels the work I'm doing (I, being the avatar puppet mistress) in my first life garden. I notice my reclusiveness in second life and my reclusiveness in first life and feel gently nurtured in my garden making explorations.

Flower garden

It's spring in rl and in Naga Saphira so I've been planting flowers. I'm also building a beautiful underwater garden where seals play. There is something deeply nurturing about planting flowers, whether in rl or sl and it is interesting that the poor old brain gets the same pleasure from it. I don't think the mind can really differentiate between a virtual space and a real one. A creative act is a creative act.
