Hello there,
1. This week in the US is brutal. I am tired of living in such "interesting" times even as I see how much possibility for good change they bring. But in interesting, historical, times I live and so I will continue to learn, share, change, and heal.
2. For how can one know color in perpetual green, and what good is warmth without cold to give it sweetness?
― John Steinbeck, Travels with Charley: In Search of America. I think it is time to reread this one again.
3. If you love old Hollywood and are in need of a bit of distraction this Instagram account will be just your thing.
4. I'm trying to practice the self-care that I preach; to know when to stop the scrolling, the news watching, the information gathering, and tend to my tender self. I was reminded through Facebook memories of this Turkey and Veggie Chile. It was in heavy rotation last winter and I believe it's time to
bring it back. Making a big pot of something nourishing calms my soul and grounds my body.
5. A bit of rose magic for you. When the world cracks you open let beauty heal you stronger. Card from The Illustrated Herbairy by Maia Toll.
