Without curiosity we might as well sit in a pit and stop breathing. My dad, at 80, said he liked learning something new everyday. He was mostly deaf and almost dead blind at the time, BUT he always had a "you know what..." when I called. Carry on!
The best people always have another "You Know What?" up their sleeves. My late grandfather was the same. (And I reckon everyone's parents & grandfolks. They all have amazing stories we don't ask them about enough, it's a fact.)
Isn't that true? I had an older man stop and talk to me one day at the lake and he told me he has decades of journals he's thinking of throwing out. I said "wow, if I was your grandchild I'd sure want to read those". I hope he didn't throw them out. I should have said heck, I'd like to read them even though I'm not your grandkid!
Congrats on your well deserved success this year. And on working Wordle into the newsletter! ( But I love Wordle, so it's good!) I watched l especially enjoyed the science of what comes next, since I'm also a novelist and that's something that I trade in.
Light pillars, the first pic, require ice crystals in the atmosphere. And they're real, and they're there. They're amazing when you see them for the first time- and no clue what they are. About 38 years old in Maine when I first saw them then looked them up. 26 years ago. A few years before Wikipedia got a start, and dealing with dialup internet, yet I was still able to find what they were.
Absolutely wonderful. Thank you for what you've brought into my life! Every issue changes my mind and its perceptions in the best possible ways. I eagerly await next season but no pressure!
Wow, what you've done here IS amazing indeed. I'm late to the party so will be diving into your archives while you are off gathering resources for the next season!
So much yes to this. Everything I have read this year has lead me to curiosity & wonder AND meditation/loving kindness/ability to "be with" the difficult. Every. Single. Thing. I am trying to subscribe to your yearly plan but it's not navigating me very well, lol. I cancelled the monthly plan, and it looks like I have to wait until tomorrow to get a new "subscribe" option. So I will!!

Thanks, Sharon. :) Carrying on!

Haha - WORDLE GETS EVERYWHERE. It's like the new sand.
Thanks so much for reading, Michael, and for the kind words. :)
