Something More




"These pages, too, are nothing other than talking leaves—


their insights stirred by the winds,

their vitality reliant on periodic sunlight

and on cool dark water seeping up

from within the ground.

Step into their shade.

Listen close.

Something other than the human mind

is at play here."-David Abram, Becoming Animal

"Waterlilies" Monet




“But your solitude will be a support and a home for you,



even in the midst of very unfamiliar circumstances,



and from it you will find all your paths.” Rainer Maria Rilke
