Every beginning must come to an end at one point. The circle of life is beautiful, if the life opportunity is taken and lived out to the absolute fullest. The life of a plant is much different than human life, but the transformation can be wilder than ones wildest dreams. A small seed with water, time, and care will become something new , something unique and something worth watching. Taken October 3th, 2014 by Ericka ( bean sprout )
This bean is new in the garden and came very late, but I think it can still become something special even with the cold weather fastly approaching. I believe that sometimes the latest bloomings can be the most beautiful things. Field notes October 4th , 2014 : "a new sprout , new life form ... Unusual timing in the season, but everything has potential in this garden. The seeds that we thought would never grow have become an endless jungle of vines . "

I think my garden has taught me to appreciate every stage of life--even death. We need them all for there to be continuation.
ReplyDeleteI love how you say that the little bean can still become something even though the bad weather is coming. I really want to you keep posting about that. The way you talked about the bean, I think it's very profound. Makes me think about how we all get through things in our lives. Good job.
ReplyDeleteI too have my own garden. I am also noticing how new vegetables are still sprouting late in the season. You almost can't help but appreciate the little things like this. Great blog.
