#14 – Love The Earth

Over the years I’ve completed a few educational pursuits in Earthly related topics like organic agriculture and “master” naturalist/gardener, partly because of my curiosity and love for all the beautiful and mysterious aspects of our world and partly because of the duty I feel to lessen my footprint during my time here. I LOVE thisContinue reading “#14 – Love The Earth”

#14 – Love Your Work

Last year on September 9th, I approached my local labyrinth and as is often the case I stood at its entrance and considered if there were things that I wanted to bring to the walking meditation before me and found all the swirling thoughts to simply be too much to sort through, so I justContinue reading “#14 – Love Your Work”

#13 – Love Your Community

Being a citizen of the world can often mean that we spend as much time outside of our homes as we do inside. It can also mean that we can go through periods of our lives not having or perhaps even wanting a home. With a home, whether renting or owning, comes even more responsibility…toContinue reading “#13 – Love Your Community”

#13 – Love the Unknown

Throughout my life I’ve been gifted with the presence of at least a dozen or so cats. Never have any of them been given so many additional names…which is telling, for me, given I’ve never cherished these three beings as much as any of the previous pets that have moved in and out of myContinue reading “#13 – Love the Unknown”

#13 – Love the Earth

I recently visited a state park where one of the trails, the first I’ve ever come across in fact, was devoted to poems to be experienced along its circuitous path. There were eight places along the way that were marked, save for one, and a brochure I picked up at the park campground with theContinue reading “#13 – Love the Earth”

# 13 – Love What’s Fun

Oh Ronald. When I think back to one of just a few childhood memories I have at this point, a fuzzy image of being in a McDonald’s for my birthday celebration comes to mind. Granted, Ronald and his crew of cheerful pals (who remembers Grimace and the Hamburglar?) were nowhere to be found but theyContinue reading “# 13 – Love What’s Fun”

#13 – Love Your Work

I did not grow up in a particular politically or religiously active home. In fact, much of my youth was spent in physical and/or emotional pain from an inherited intestinal anomaly and more trauma than any child should have to endure, anywhere in the world. Whether this or the way in which my home operatedContinue reading “#13 – Love Your Work”

#13 – Love Everything

A little over a month ago I joined my 15 year old and his father in the Emergency Room of our children’s hospital following the requirement by the local eating disorder clinic we’d previously had assessments at (for the anorexia that had been working on his body and mind for some time) that we wereContinue reading “#13 – Love Everything”

#13 – Love Your Self

As another year starts to pass and this book of offerings for each day of the year draws slowly ever out on to this site, I am surrounded with reminders everywhere I look to be patient – with myself, with others, with time. I appreciate the idea and often am fairly content to be patient,Continue reading “#13 – Love Your Self”

On relating

*Previously published via The Sober Knights Chronicles Substack Refreshing my understanding of the how things, concepts, and/or people (including my self) are connected to me (and I to them) as of late has taken me into the past, since this is where a significant amount of inquiry and understanding of such was born. My firstContinue reading “On relating”
