Maybe a little odd, perhaps a little interesting?
I volunteer at a farm as part of a CSA share and today, not knly did I get in a good old fashioned farm workout, I learned something new. Today we were tilling the garden beds getting them ready for fresh seeds and while doing so, we found a few carrots that didn't get pulled at the end of last season. These carrots were quite large and still fully edible and quite a bit bigger than the ones we pulled when we were shutting everything down. These carrots grew in the nutrient rich soil but were left burried and unnoticed for whatever reason. They remained underground for the entire winter, harsh cold and all from a very long winter. I learned that these carrots are so full of nutrients they're actually referred to as medicinal carrots as they were strong enough to outlast the harsh conditions and as a result carry more nutrients than the carrots pulled last fall. What I learned today is that I want to be a carrot 😂 Strong enough to be overlooked initially but come out stronger, richer, fuller and more extraordinary in the end. If you could pick a strange and unlikely thing to aspire to be, what would it be?
