Learning humility and modesty To farm, one must bend their knees, bow their head, and crawl. By thoroughly lowering myself, I listened to the sounds of life growing. By planting a single seed, nature rewarded me with multiple harvests. Communing with nature healed and comforted my empty heart. Rolling in the soil, covered in green, I colored my twenties.

Through farming, you experience the value and mystery of a single seed with your whole body. Even when growing trees, you learn that their roots grow deep into the ground to the same height as their tree. If roots are shallow, the tree will be uprooted by the wind and rain. Your twenties are like a seed’s time to root. It’s a time to learn humility and modesty.
