Random morning musing. I walked out to the garden this morning and was struck with a vibe thats hard to explain. You see, on my Fathers side I am Cajun French, on my Mothers side I descended from poor Mississippi dirt farmers who came down from southern Appalachia. Both have a long legacy of struggle and want, yet never failed to lose compassion and charity to their fellow humans fighting the same battles, regardless of class, color, or creed. My family and I are far from wealthy people, but have astronomically more than my ancestors could have ever dreamed about. As I pulled these vegetables from the Earth this morning, I couldnt help but feel their spirit beside me. I genuinely hope they are pleased with my actions and that I can live up to the cost of the struggles they endured to bring us this far, and hope I can bring us a little further along with my life. I am as proud of my heritage as any blue blood on any estate.
