What grows up must grow down

September 6, 2017 By Miki Dedijer

The autumn rains, the growing reach of the night, the early morning mists all say it’s time to harvest now.

The seeds I planted in early spring have become cabbages the size of UFOs and onions with leaves like spears.

And as I start gently to pull them from the soil, their roots cling firmly the ground: what grows up must also grow down.

That holds true for our children too. To mature into soulful, ripened adults, they need to be well-rooted in a rich, nurturing soil.
