Welcome to “Life in the Real World”. The world of humans is an often noisy and chaotic place but right outside my door I find the world of nature has a realness to it, an ordinary magic with everyday miracles.
I hope this newsletter will be an oasis of peace and beauty, a soft place to land in challenging times. I hope you will find it grounding, meditative, sometimes illuminating, and full of genuine curiosity about this strange thing we call Life.
Here are some of my favorite posts:
I walk in the park to remember how I want to walk through the world.
I’ve been walking in a county park near my home in Kansas City, Missouri for over a decade. I’ve heard the term “becoming native to place” and perhaps that’s what I’m doing. I want to know “all my relations” as the native people so beautifully say and I’ve come to know many of their ways, their habits, their attitudes and their beauty. My newsletter offers moments to pause and encourages others to notice all the beings in their own world.
