But the seed sown on rich soil is the one who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and yields a hundred or sixty or thirtyfold.
(Gospel)

Rooted

To be rooted in
earth
is to be rooted in
Christ

and to embrace the
earth
is to embrace
Christ

to die
means to lose faith
or to adopt an old faith

the belief in nothing

to believe that
I am nothing

to believe that
earth is nothing

to believe
that others are nothing

to believe that
my human endeavor
is nothing

and this is the
mystery of death

that one can die

rooted watered and
warmed by the sun

and say
all is nothing

yet live
