I love the idea that we stay in a relationship with those who have passed through storytelling.

Salmon and wolves! So precious little environmental news is good news - I’m happy to have heard about 2 little pieces of good news in Spokane 😊

Love this,Mary. I'm very interested now in what acts can help restore balance. Abd i love what Eli said about the impact of his work on him as a human being.

Thank you for sharing this with me Mary! I appreciate your perspective. What you said really resonates with me. I am glad you wanted more details regarding how wolves, if allowed can show us how to better people. I can always expound on that topic if you ever want to chat further. Take care and thank you for the love.

The poem is everything. 💕 and your vulnerability is beautiful

Writing about my family, writing about my mom especially, made me kinder. I have empathy for the characters/people I write about even if they did me harm. When I write about a person, whether real or fictional, I try to see the world from their point of view. Thank you for your beautiful words today!

Thanks for reading! I’m so glad it resonated. It is reciprocal as that’s how I felt about your thoughts about the work that you do. Yes, I would love to chat and learn more. Maybe we can have a part two. 😊

Thanks for reading. That means everything too! I also really like that poem - I’m glad you like it. I suppose it is a bit vulnerable- most of my writing is.
