The prairie is a patient and subtle teacher. She deepens my well of knowledge, wisdom, and spirituality by inviting attention to the minutiae within her temporal existence. As I reflect on her adamant whispers of enlightenment, I find it’s not the colorful headlines of fat years that paint her masterpieces. It’s the incidental stories and details buried on pages six, seven, and eight of her perennial saga that tug at my soul and quicken my heart. Surely divine genius governs the precise alignment of the details. Nature’s grandest endeavors depend on the success of the smallest component.
