nuts, seeds & greens are the most nourishing, life-giving, biologically perfected foods that we can benefit from.
Consider that many of the fruits and vegetables that we eat today are not 'indigenous' species, but cultivated genetics prepared for purposes of mass agriculture, feeding more people, and harnessing various traits.
Yet, originally All food was Wild, growing madly in a race for the most beautiful existence, the most extravagant leap of green fueled creation spurred on by human co-habitation and appreciation.
If you visit the tropics you will see a taste of the Wild Nature of which I speak, with fruits you will never remember the name of and flavors you only ever dreamed about.
Fruits are truly the greatest gift of nature, created most beautifully and perfectly as a Divine substantial meal for humans and many other animals species. Fruits are offered from trees, bushes, flowers and vines.
When you take a fruit, the plant that you have taken begins to produce MORE fruit for you to continue to take a be Blessed by.
Some fruits grow flesh around a central seed, or pit, the flesh of these fruits are like the Womb of the seeds; The juices and fibers nourish the baby seedling, which must be protected fiercely, as it contains within it the potential for another creation, which may bear countless more fruits and countless more seeds.
When you eat a delicious juicy fruit, or a crunchy apple, or maybe it is a creamy avocado, or a summer-vine ripened tomato...
Give thanks to the land which grows that food,
Give thanks to the plant which evolved to create that specific type of food that is unique in all the Universe
Give thanks to the elements that nourished the fruits as they grew
and the hands that picked them and brought them to You
Give thanks for the nourishment, the life-essence, the thirst quenching liquid Sunlight that fruits Give
Give thanks for this journey, this exploration of Being in Unity with Earth
