I appreciate the simple beauty and honesty of this list. Thank you for the respite. It’s been a tough week.
Your posts are a balm at the end of a difficult week. Those shells! I have a four year old who did the same thing. At first I saw it as clutter on my sill, and then a few nights later I started stringing them on a stick she had also placed there and created a mobile. At 11pm, with a glass of wine, and the ability to do anything but an art project. I do love the way they open our eyes.
Wow, that medium article is mind-blowing. And infuriating.
