Soil is a natural resource that we often overlook and abuse just because of its supposed abundance. Some call it “dirt” and many times we attribute to stains and things we should rid ourselves of in the name of cleanliness. I choose to call it a “wonder” because on it we grow our food; it even covers up the dead. Just because it doesn’t scream in pain when we step on it doesn’t mean it isn’t alive.
