Really cool pic and well written about.
I agree that we atimes forget how the food we eat is made. Our food supply begins in the soil, the source of everything we eat.
Nearly everything we humans eat can be traced back to soil.
I like that you added "and keep it clean" towards the end of the write up. A healthy land =A healthy people. Erosion has done a lot of damage lets not add more damage to it.
Land is really limited and all thanks to it. As a lover of history, Soil holds the key to Earth's history, containing and preserving artifacts of the planet's past, both its natural and its human/cultural antecedents. You can thank soil for those dinosaur fossils every kid loves to see at a natural history museum as well as the relics that tell us how our own human story evolved. Its already obvious that these ancient artifacts are extinct and hence limited, but land really helped to preserve those fossils that we see in museums today.
I agree with @franklin that time is really limited. Money isn’t the most important thing in the world. Your time is.” Most of us come to realize at some point that money is a means, not an end.
Great post @velimir. So many take away lessons. 👍

Well said @georgechuks.
Our time is limited, and the prevailing wisdom is that the more we have of it, the more opportunities there are for us to experience joy and fulfillment.

Nice one there @bridgetoby.
But is that the whole story? Is time really what adds more to life?
I’d argue otherwise. The most important asset in your life isn’t time alone, but attention to the time. The quality of the experiences in your life doesn’t depend on how many hours there are in the day, but in how the hours you have are used.
You can spend 80 years of a life with as much free time as you want and still not get out of it as much as someone who only lived for 40 years but managed to appropriately direct attention to the things that mattered to them.
Although time is indeed limited, with attention, it can be diluted to expand beyond what most other people get out of the same quantity.
Unfortunately, this happens to be harder than it sounds.
