This late-life essay provides an overarching statement that sums up Bailey's philosophy. He argues that "[w]e give too small thought to the beauty and quality of life," and the solution is to be found in "contact with the mystery of life that stands stark before us" throughout nature. It is through the common things in our garden, such as the buttercup or the weed at our back door, that we find the treasures and meaning in life.
