Succulent. Does the word make your mouth water? It should. *Tender, juicy, tasty, moist, and luscious.* Isn't it ironic that a plant grown in dry, desert-scapes, is called *succulent?* Desert on the outside. ?️ Clarifying hydration on the inside. ? I had a succulent day, yesterday, thanks to a remarkable 12-hour peyote journey. Two friends made it possible -- Robert "Rattlesnake" Breedon, and another more discreet fellow who I'm sure would prefer to remain unnamed, so shall. To you both, I give my heartiest thanks for the treasure that was yesterday! ? ?

It celebrates what is weathered, worn or rusted. With strength and clarity, my grandad lived to be 101. So maybe that's why I've always gravitated toward this way of thinking.
