    The following is a homework assignment from the writing class I am currently taking:
    Whenever I am frustrated by the bustle of the city, uncertainty and chaos of the outside world, I have my little garden in the backyard to inspire me. It is my little world, a place for refuge and relaxation, comfort and meditation.
