I can't explain it better than that. Reach out with our "non-verbal" senses and "listen".

Yes, I am absolutely weird.

I know what you mean Ted and I don’t think it’s weird, just different from what the “labelers” define as a norm. For me the more I try to comprehend and understand, the more I realize there is for me to learn and try to understand. I believe what humans now know, is minute compared to all that there is to know. I’m going back to pondering the essence of dark matter now. Thanks for posting.

Ted, no, you're not weird.

You put into words something that is difficult to explain.

Not weird,Ted. I'd call it intuitive, and I agree, we would all benefit from getting out of the clutter of our verbal minds, and just commune with the natural world.

Default Well, I might have gotten the vibes right on this one

Here's today's status. I allowed it to get a bit leggy, but it will get planted deep enough to really get the roots going big time.

My Grandfather's advice on learning was always to "Close your mouth and open your ears". I guess I try take it another level. But this little guy was a perfect student. About half of the stem you see will be covered when it gets planted out.

Now, we need to get to the fruiting stage.
