Flowers and roots

roots from flower bed 20150607

I have never done much gardening before.  However, now that I am more engaged in my yard work and I embark upon the effort to upgrade our yard’s flower beds I have discovered fascinating roots.  Where do they come from?  What do they support?

Before my recent foray into gardening, I would see a flower and note the color and striking presence it may have among the other plants, but now I wonder about the roots that generated such a flower and how much more interesting and complex the roots are than the simple façade of a flower petal.

As an extension of this concept, I now wonder about the presentation a person provides to the world.  We each present ourselves to this reality in our own fashion.  Henceforth I will view a person not only for the upfront presentation, but also for the depths of that person’s deep-rooted being.

What is there to say about me? I am not sure if I am typical or not, average or not, smart or not, BUT I think I definitely have a sense of humor. I am an aging baby boomer wondering if I have something to say about the world as I see it.
