Reflections On Mother Nature And My 70 Years Of Digging Picking Gathering
![Jese Leos](https://epilogueepic.com/author/john-parker.jpg)
For over seven decades, I have wandered the forests, meadows, and seashores, embracing the wonders that Mother Nature has to offer. From a young child, I found solace and joy in the simplicity and beauty of the natural world around me. Now, at the age of 85, I find myself reflecting on the countless moments spent digging, picking, and gathering treasures hidden throughout the landscapes that have become my sanctuary.
As I sit here reminiscing over a lifetime full of treasures collected from the earth, there is a deep-rooted sense of gratitude and appreciation that fills my heart. The connection to Mother Nature is one that has sustained me through both the joyful and challenging times in my life. It is a bond that has grown stronger with each passing year, teaching me valuable lessons about patience, resilience, and the delicate balance of life.

The Art of Digging
Digging has been a skill I have honed over many years, starting as a child fascinated by the thought of uncovering hidden gems beneath the surface. From finding ancient arrowheads nestled in the soil to unearthing sparkling minerals that glisten in the sunlight, each excavation carries the thrill of unveiling the mysteries hidden by Mother Nature.
As my shovel breaks through the ground, my hands instinctively sift through the dirt and rocks, searching for the treasures waiting to be discovered. The rhythmic motion of digging becomes a meditation, allowing me to sink deeper into a state of mindful exploration.
In moments of solitude, surrounded by the earth and its secrets, I feel a profound connection to something greater than myself. It is as if Mother Nature herself guides my hands, leading me to the treasures that were destined to be found. I am merely a vessel through which these enigmatic wonders are brought into the light.
Picking Nature's Gifts
With each passing season, Mother Nature unveils a new array of gifts, each one more breathtaking than the last. From the vibrant blossoms of spring to the fiery hues of autumn, the natural world offers an ever-changing canvas of beauty.
I have spent countless hours wandering through forests, collecting leaves of all shapes and colors. Each leaf holds a unique story, whispering tales of growth, change, and the eternal cycles of life. As I carefully arrange them in my collection, I am reminded of the fleeting nature of time and the importance of embracing the present moment.
There is a certain joy that comes from picking wild berries, their ripened sweetness bursting upon my tongue. Each berry carries the essence of the sun, rain, and earth in its juicy flesh. They serve as a reminder of the nourishment and sustenance that Mother Nature provides, a true gift for both the body and the soul.
Gathering Memories
Throughout my years of exploration, I have gathered more than just physical treasures. Mother Nature has gifted me with an abundance of memories, each one etched into the very fabric of my being.
As I recall the countless mornings spent watching the sunrise over a glistening lake, my heart swells with a profound sense of peace. The symphony of birdsong, the gentle breeze caressing my face, and the awe-inspiring colors painting the sky all become a part of me, ingrained in my memories forever.
Each time I set foot on a sandy shore, I am transported back to a childhood filled with endless curiosity and wonder. The feel of shells beneath my feet, the salty scent of the ocean in the air, and the seagulls soaring overhead create a symphony of sensations that I treasure above all else.
My collection of memories is vast and ever-growing, a testament to the indescribable beauty and magnificence of Mother Nature. These memories have become my guiding light, reminding me of what truly matters in life.
As I reflect on my 70 years of digging, picking, and gathering, I am filled with a deep sense of gratitude for the wonders that Mother Nature has bestowed upon me. From the treasures unearthed in the earth to the memories crafted in my soul, each experience has shaped me into the person I am today.
As the years pass, my connection to the natural world only grows stronger. Mother Nature has been my constant companion, offering solace, inspiration, and a profound sense of belonging. Through her gifts, I have learned to appreciate the beauty in the smallest of details, to embrace the ever-changing cycles of life, and to find joy in the simplest of moments.
In a world that often moves at a dizzying pace, Mother Nature provides a gentle reminder to slow down, to breathe, and to drink in the beauty that surrounds us. She is a powerful force that nourishes our spirits and rekindles our sense of wonder.
So, as I continue on my journey, I will carry with me the lessons learned and the treasures gathered from a lifetime spent in harmony with Mother Nature. There is no greater gift than the love and wisdom she imparts upon those who take the time to truly see and appreciate her wonders.
