Welcome!

Welcome! This is a place to share how we celebrate & deepen our relationship to Nature. Here you will find stories, images, & ideas about wilderness, human nature, & soulfulness. Drawing from the experiences of everyday living, the topics on this blog include: forays into the natural world, the writing life, community service, meditation, creativity, grief & loss, inspiration, & whatever else emerges from these. I invite you on this exploration of the wild within & outside of us: the inner/outer landscape.

This Week #The100DayProject

words from the page enter the inner landscape 

flow like paint through neural pathways, branching tree limbs or roots reaching:

for nourishment, for a tether, for clarification

 

colors from a box choose themselves for the task

flow like thoughts across the textured surface of watercolor paper:

for shape, for structure, for conveyance of image from photo to painting

 

my body moves from desk to art table and back again

listening to wisdom, awaiting inspiration, seeking guidance:

for the how, for the what, but never for the why


steadily leading me into ever more intimate kinship with the more-than-humans
