“Strawberries first shaped my view of a world full of gifts simply scattered at your feet. A gift comes to you through no action of your own, free, having moved toward you without your beckoning. It is not a reward; you cannot earn it, or call it to you, or even deserve it. And yet it appears. Your only role is to be open-eyed and present. gifts exist in a realm of humility and mystery–and as with random acts of kindness, we do not know their source.” Robin Wall Kimmerer
