Have you ever held your ground? Like seriously, really take a good long moment and just savored it?\u00a0 You ever just let your fingers run through it, and let the rich aroma penetrate your being? Have you really stopped and appreciated it’s life giving warmth?\u00a0 There’s so many “things” that we don’t give another thought — but should really be\u00a0 very thankful for.<\/p>\n

\"ground\"<\/p>\n

You may be sayin’, “Oh dude, why so emo’ Rob?” LOL! \ud83d\ude42 \u00a0 Just wanted to let you know that there are going to be quite a few changes on my side of the Sarracenia-universe.\u00a0 My apologies ahead of time if my posting\u00a0 frequencies seem to grow father apart.\u00a0 I’m still here though, just a lot of transitions going on.\u00a0 These times are really allowing me an opportunity to take a step back and just be thankful for all that I have.\u00a0 Oh man, these times and circumstances are for sure teaching me what to hold on to, and things I can let go of. (Hey, you notice – the “Shop” tab? Yeah, I’m going to start to “leggo” and sell off extra plants, so check back often! \ud83d\ude09 )<\/em><\/p>\n

The photo above is one I took a couple months ago as I was mixing my peat\/sand mixture.\u00a0 I took a moment and just held my ground. There’s something magical to think that from the soil, things will root and\u00a0 things will grow.\u00a0 From the earth we came, and one day – we will return.\u00a0 There’s a bond that’s formed when working with the earth one way or another. I can’t really describe it…. so be sure to take a moment, be thankful, and hug\u00a0 your ground today.<\/p>\n
