Organic Roots: Everywhere and Nowhere

You are currently viewing Organic Roots: Everywhere and Nowhere

I’m from a place where children run and play freely from dawn to dusk.

I’m from a place where children eagerly gather around their grandparents’ feet to listen to tales of their ancestors on moonlit nights.

I’m from a place where children know how cows smell like.  

 I’m from a place where people know how bananas grow.

I’m from a place where people have flower gardens and fruit trees in their backyards.

I’m from a place where people eat colorful and earthy food. 

I’m from a place where streams and rivers flow without man’s interference.

I’m from a place where people wear colorful clothes with intricate designs.

I’m from a place where people are fluent in hospitality, service, and generosity. 

I’m from a place where people are fluent in thousand of cultures.  

I’m from a place where there is no such thing as being overly nice.

I’m from a place where there are kindhearted, hardworking, content, and hopeful people.
