Some of last year's potatoes are coming up in the middle of my spinach beds. I've transplanted them and expect to get some new potatoes this year. Volunteer squash and tomatoes inevitably come up in the compost. Abundance is more the nature of nature than scarcity, and it only takes a small handful of seeds to get things growing.
Which is to say that there is still so much vitality --creativity, energy, experience in the American work force that with some adjustments and scrounging, we can weather this thing.
This economic downturn is teaching me to become a really mature responsible adult (age 48) and not fall prey to catastrophic thinking. I'm finally learning to see that even if it's only 1/8th full, the glass is still not empty.
