i believe
in the powerful gesture of carrying a reusable mug
in the new story
and riding bicycles
not owning what we don’t need
in local book stores
and paper books
telling our children the truth, always, even when it’s difficult
in unseen acts of integrity
light rail
dark skies
the cello of martin watkinson. the piano of khakia buiatishvili. the guitar of brittany howard.
eating slowly while sitting down
sitting down
standing up
the innate human capacity to live in tune with nature
magic
spirits
fairies
our future.
