Words:

The best part of my day was finishing harvesting hundreds of carrots and looking at all of the dirt caked on my hands. It was beautifully rewarding. The most interesting aspect of this is when I finally showered. I really didn't want to because I was so happy with the dirt. I recently bought a new loofah to clean my skin with in the shower. The water turned milky coffee brown as it rinsed off of my skin. Eventually the dirt was gone and I kept holding the loofah up to the light to see how dirty it was. It still looked like there was dirt on it, even after I washed out the loofah several times. Later, I realised it was just my skin underneath. I thought, how beautiful, to have skin the colour of Earth.

On side of hand: "How lucky am I."
