Many years ago I mocked gardening because I thought there were more "spiritually significant" things I could do. "It's all going to burn someday" rhetoric.
Back in the day I thought hurry was the only context to express zeal.
Seems I forgot that it all started in a Garden and will end in a city- So it seems like urban Gardening puts me in a good context to meditate on the storyline.
Have an old 1969 stereo system on the porch with my i-pod jacked in. One of the speakers is thrashed- so I've been playing strictly mono lo-fi music. Phil Spectre, Pet Sounds, and the first 4 Beatles Capital Releases.
