There is no beginning
I was sitting here trying to write my blog with the words ‘Begin it now’ swirling round my head. So I went down to the greenhouse to think and there I found the first ripe tomato of the year. Having grounded myself it struck me that, with growing, the principle behind a truly sustainable and organic system is that there is no beginning and no end point. From the decomposition in compost to the nutrients transformation in forming a new fruit. The beginning is merely the initial point you view the cycle from. And so I begin it now but from the wider context – from greenhouse to internet even these words are just part of a wider cycle.
