"If you are on this earth / you are of this earth." thank you for the responsibility to sow seeds until they sing in the Earth... it takes only one tremendous breath.

awe! some!

i would gladly receive some plants if you need fostering/adoptive places for any.

I will miss local observations from you when you leave, but I'll happily still think of us as fellow-earthlings forever.

thank you for taking the bus. thank you for encouraging me to catch more--i needed the nudge. thank you for sharing this expression by Charif Shananhan--my heart needed the words. thank you for opening your heart to me when we met at the same abundantly fertile ISL stop.

i am so grateful.

Loved this post! "Always get on the bus" is a great motto.

I went through a similar exploration myself, trying to articulate who are my people.

Do check it out!

Kristin, with all due tenderness, tysm for the kick in the butt. we are the same in this way. i appreciate the reminder to show up for the lives we want. it feels silly to need to be reminded but alas. grateful for our shared afterlife, full of poems and heart and everything alive. wishing you an easeful move. i got rid of all my plants when i moved, too, and asked friends to bring their cuttings instead of housewarming gifts. it's the best.
