Such a tiny garden. Ancient olive trees. Knarled, weather beaten trunks. New shoots springing forth from aged ones. Greying green boughs bearing fruit even today as they did in millenia past. Cannot but think of the olive presses we have seen and the sheer weight of His surrender here.... Such a still, quiet, sober place, despite the hundreds of pilgrims. Each person seemingly deep in thought and prayer....
