Sunrise

Soul Soil Reclamation is a new blog that Grace and I imagined, and it is finally beginning to sprout! In truth it materialized itself out of our ambitions, without much need of preconceived initiative.

This blog is about maintaining our true role as humans. To provide dominion over the land, work with it, and produce beauty from our labor. This blog is aimed to take back our rightful place in the ecosystem, rekindle our responsibilities, and reclaim the soil of our souls.

An interesting note:
The downfall of many civilizations in history was rooted in the erosion, or destruction, of their soil.

A relevant quote by Geoff Lawton, who is a great teacher of Permaculture: "You can solve all the world's problems in a garden."

And you can't have a beautiful garden without rich, breathable, moist, organic soil!

The very beginning of man on this Earth was surrounded in a lush garden.

To maintain the soil, take care of the plants and animals, that is our number one role. Everything we do traces back to that simple idea, which proves to be more complex than anything we can imagine!

That is why we must also maintain the soil of our soul, as it is the place from which all aspects of our life grow. To keep the relationship of our soul to the soil of this Earth is to keep the integrity of our spirits and to preserve the most beautiful virtue of life, which is growth.

Grace and I are very passionate about improving the ways we live: in society, as humans, as lovers, and many other applications. We want to share any ideas we can hope to offer to anyone who wants to listen and grow in the same ways as us.

Thank you for stopping by! We hope you enjoy our posts and our blog!
