  • why African babies don’t cry?

    From J. Claire K. Niala‘s observation, the reasons are, as shared by her grandmother: 1. Offer the breast every single moment that your baby is upset – even if you have just fed her. 2. Co-sleep. Many times you can feed your baby before they are fully awake, which will allow them to go back…

  • emotional vitality

    the very things that we require to stay emotionally vital: community, ritual, nature, compassion, reflection, beauty and love. nature – checked 🙂 reflection, beauty, compassion – somehow started 😛 [I’m modest, I know 🙂 ] the rest – on the way! I feel ritual is the most far from me… I am with it… community…

  • grief is life changing…

    I never would have thought what raw, searing grief and sorrow could bring out the most tender, generous, compassionate, and loving sides of total strangers. It was exquisite.

  • Ordinary

    Are you Musk? Or amber? You scent is intoxicating!   The clay answers back… I am just a humble piece of clay. But for a day or two I’ve kept the fellowship of roses. It’s their companionship that has had an impact on me. Otherwise, I am just ordinary clay.

  • Coleman’s bed

    Be taught now, among the trees and rocks, how the discarded is woven into shelter, learn the way things hidden and unspoken slowly proclaim their voice into the world.
