Imagine yourself standing in a deep golden field of wheat. You are surrounded by absolute silence except for the wisp of the wind rippling through each individual stock. The field is alive with movement as the wheat sways with the direction of the wind. Standing alone, absorbing the beauty of the field, you can see the wheat meet the setting sun as it descends from the sky. You feel content, peaceful, and warm completely immersed in this glorious and magnificent range of pure gold.
We as individuals are as tiny as one grain of wheat, but when surrounded by water, sun, and nutrients we have the capacity to grow and become a beautiful stalk. When the stalks are combined and harvested into bundles the crop takes on the ability to provide nourishment for numerous individuals. By coming together as a community, we create the ability to provide for those in need through harvesting our combined efforts.
