From the
San Diego Jewish Journal:
The Enchanted Gardener
The mystical and sometimes mystifying Leslie Goldman wants to change your world with chocolate peppermint.
As I sit down to talk with Leslie Goldman, also known as the Enchanted Gardener, he asks me to rub some chocolate peppermint between my hands and inhale deeply three times. He tells me my whole world can change in less than 15 seconds.
I'm not sure I'm ready to have my world change that fast.
"All the things you would do to make a plant grow are… symbolic of the things you and I need for our lives to grow," Goldman says. "I call that Plant Parenthood. In other words, letting the plants teach us how to find room in our lives for the things that are naturally meant to be part of our lives that we've forgotten."
Still confused, I ask him exactly what part of my life I've forgotten.
"We've forgotten our essence, a way of living that is soul-inspired," Goldman explains patiently. "The path of nature is a way to restore this essential connection."
Goldman gives me some seeds called Job's Tears and tells me that if I take the time to plant them, my dreams will come true.
