Among those things that I try not to say one of the first places should be the phrase: I know it!

Yes it is quite normal to know something and perhaps I know a lot in different areas but sometimes everything I know is not worth a dime because one day I see something that shows me a huge gap in my knowledge lol.

For example studying the issue of gardening and lard growing I pay attention to the composition of the soil and understand that its quality is very important for plants.

But when I see a plant that blooms and smells, growing on stones where the soil cannot be called "soil" a priori I understand that life is more stylish than any knowledge it is impossible to keep it in check with reference books and encyclopedias it just lives as it should live itself - life!

I found this Echinacea flower and many of its fellows on rocky hills late in the year covered with a layer of white rubble apparently a rock rich in calcium which makes the soil incredibly alkaline and unsuitable for plant life.

But these flowers thrive there in spite of everything.
