Tending to plants, I feel an ancient energy connect up inside me. This energy feels to be welling up through a connection to the Earth beneath my feet. This occurrence is no matter whether I be visiting with “house plants” or out in some exterior landscape.
Listening to the language of the plants, through the sense of “spiritual feeling” often directs my attention. Though my intention may start out to do one thing, the conversation often directs my attention otherwise.
Regardless of intention, or attention, the end result is always a deep connection to the ancient energy found in us all. Though admittedly, this ancient energy is sometimes (ever often) avoided, ignored, even shunned by the many (myself not excluded from the many (and too often, from my perspective)), it does exist, and invites us to pause and “remember”.
