Lovingly and beautifully written. I really like the way the Bitterroot Flower embodies the spirit, the essense of what we have in this small valley in Montana. Quite an adventure. Especially where you had to put aside the pain that was endlessly in your body by recognizing it and moving beyond it with your meditative work.

Do you know anyone who has successfully planted Bitterroot seed and grown them? I have tried several times in the backyard but nothing has happened. We are big gardeners and bonsai people but success has definitely eluded us with Bitterroot. Love the piece!

Wonderful Marnie! I know that territory and it was delightful to soak up the sun and sage reading your piece. And I so love Bitterroots. Good you're back at sharing and worshipping words!
