Gardening -

Ha! After 2 summers of not being able to play in my yard, I shoveled dirt and planted flowers and vegetables today!!! Nothing, nothing, nothing compares to being able to get my hands in the soil, commune with the earth - touch the stuff I'm created from, aaaah.

It's times like this, when I'm yanking morning glory from the flower bed, mashing turkey poo into the surrounding dirt, watching critters crawl and squirm, pulling starts from plastic containers and placing them in their rightful home - healthy soil, that feed my soul.


I sang this tune as I gardened today -

 

And to me there really isn't any more to the story than this - I am a part of the earth, I will return to the earth, and that is beautiful.
