Diversity Found

Malus x heterophylla -this apple is a natural cross between the domestic apple and the indigenous species apple Malus coronaria or Sweet Crabapple.

I like apples. Pretty much all apples. Even the apples that are impossible to eat fresh. I like those too. At my farm I have a pea sized apple that I call the World’s Greatest Apple. Why? Because it tastes so good. Never mind the size. No one would intentionally breed an apple pea size. Yet, it exists and I am thankful for that. And so are the myriads of birds that fly through my farm every year. I see their droppings. I see the seeds they left. I see a lot of things, but the best is they eat the World’s Greatest Apple. This is the role of diversity. It nourishes everyone and everything. From the microbes in the soil, the late night visits of the racoons to the birds in the air, it’s a success. You could easily say nature makes life work for everything. This is what we should be doing. Making Life Work for Everyone. This was a philosophy of a great sage. This is the philosophy humans try to live by. This is something we strive for that seems so effortless for nature yet so hard for humans at this point in our evolution. Either way it does not matter because this diversity is solving a lot of problems all at once. Why? Because the design is meant for making life work for our living world and all those within it.
