I'm not sure what to think about these times. They seem unsettled and strange. Yet I find these pockets of community where I talk about the strangeness and something settles. The wisdom of the forest pulls me deeper into the mystery, and I find myself craving further adventures, farther out. The flowers that are waking up have some of the answers, if only we have the space and courage to listen.
Good to hear your perspective, Holly. Knowing you are in Canada, living close to the plants and the forest I am sure is reassuring and nurturing. May these adventures nurture you deeply, and may the listening spread widely!
The Canadians are in a pretty crazy upheaval around tariffs and are opting to buy local and Canadian-made. The supermarkets are full of US and other countries' produce and products and everything else is empty. There's more us vs. them talk like in COVID times, and I find it bizarre.
Keep writing. I enjoy these and your perspective in particular with your background is important - we need to know.
You are not alone my comrade. I too recall the holocaust and persecution as Native American chief leading my tribe off a cliff to avoid slaughter. We are many, armed with the wisdom of the flowers, to heal these memories in the collective. Spiritual warriors who heal souls. Thank you for arming me with the Scotch Broom to have the courage to fight at your side.
Dear Mary, I am deeply moved by your comment. Spiritual warriors who heal souls!!! Thank you so much for voicing it - and for being side by side in this!

Listening deeply, and making essence madly.
