What do you do for a living, Gladys? "Nothing yet. I'm an archtecture student. It's a very involved field: you don;t just have to worry about looks, but also load stress, the flow of people, usable life … There's a lot to learn." I can see why having a meditation aid like a zen garden would help. "Absolutely. Plus, I just love … anything Japanese, really. Our aesthetics are just so unique!"
