Retrieving my soul

My day felt thoroughly non useful, until I bought a trowel and retrieved soil from the garage. I planted a beautiful flower thing that I was given (along with all the other women) at the wedding of a good friend of mine. That's the one on the right. The lavender I bought today (on the left). I feel as if I have achieved something today. It has become useful. I have become useful.

As an aside, as I wrote 'retrieved soil from the garage', I accidentally first wrote a typo - soul, instead of soil. Perhaps I need to retrieve my soul today too, as I've been feeling a bit soul-less. Having said that, I feel as if I've started retrieving my soul already through planting and being near the earth.
