DiaryOfAWorm: Everything Under the Sun and from the Water


Lake Cottage Friends

Life emerged from the sea and is powered by the sun. In nature, as in growing, sun and water are essential to life and food. Without sun and water, plants in the garden would not grow. We are all dependent on these two great sources of life, sun and water. We all live above the water and under the sun. It is no wonder early humans worshiped the sun and the water. These two young girls standing on the pier at sunset, my granddaughter visiting us and another young girl visiting her grandparents in the cottage next door, became lake cottage friends. They did not know each other before last week and will probably never meet again. But for a moment of time they were friends brought together by the water and the sun.

I did a little work today on the garden, collected some coffee grounds for the compost, and did some watering. But tomorrow I must do some serious weeding on the food garden and rain garden. Weeds, like all plants, also grow with water and sun. The sun shines and the rain rains on all, weeds, flowers and food plants. It is up to us to separate them, taking the weeds out, so other plants can grow.

All humans are like plants and flowers. We grow amidst weeds. The weeds might really be edible plants but if they are not they need to go so we can flourish. We all need water and sun to grow. Everything is under the sun and from the water.
