The core of mans' spirit comes from new experiences. Christopher McCandless
oh to be bored!
to sit
at a desk
in front of a computer
tormenting yourself
by looking at terrible
sites such as myspace
and the likes
not DOING anything
not LEARNING anything
or EXPERIENCING anything new.
it's no wonder suicide rates are higher for blue collar workers than they are for farmers. farmers have their hands in the earth. they are familiar with the cycles of life's ups and downs. they are active.
to all of us who sit at a desk.
or who are trying to find their true calling.
we
must
remember to
stretch
our minds
our bodies
our possibilities
our lives.
stretch them. pull them. embrace them. decorate them. LIVE them.

I hear ya!
Thanks for the reminder. I often have to take a break from my computer and go sit in my small but very precious garden. I gaze at my vegetables, poke the dirt with my finger and sit for a minute before returning inside to work. Its so important to feel that connection with our world.
what a fun picture!!!
