Blue berry leaves turning colorful

 At corners of the fence, fallen leaves and pulled weeds are piled up. It will turn to be compost next spring. It is the main source of nutrients for the vegetables and plants at our garden/farm. 


Yesterday, I was working at one of them in the garden. The beautiful leaves of blue berry bushes came in my eyes. I knew they had been there. But I have not paid much attention to them. It was an unexpected surprise. Among several kinds of deciduous trees here, it must be the tree of the most impressive leaves in gradation in this season.  





As I have iterated in this blog, it is woderful those leaves, hued various beautiful colors, are shining most brightly at the very moment when they are falling on the ground. And they will fertilize the plant with their death. 

In the human society, the opposite things are going on. Elderly pursuing more power and money defeating the others. The system of the domestic as well as the international societies are so complicated that it won't be easy for us to ascribe a lot of troubles, struggles or even wars to a single cause. But the avidity for power and money of those ruling nations may be the basic issue, I believe. Will there be any wisdom to overcome it? Without it, there could be nuclear arm war occurring in the near future. The Ukrainean war has told us nuclear war could be a reality, not just for deterrence of war.
