April 10, 2004 ~ I’m standing with grass under my feet, planting an assortment of plants into the bottom of a white Rubbermaid trash can. I enjoy the feeling of the soil and plants between my fingers. A section of the grass is uncovered and earth worms wriggle around. An old man instructs me. A young boy runs around with the worms. I am concentrating hard on creating a nourishing environment for my plants to grow.
