I found this poem / graphic posted elsewhere by @darkskyintl.bsky.social and wanted to share it here, too, to honor the life of world renown conservationist and scientist Dr. Jane Goodall.
An image of a spectacular night sky with stars and the Milky Way, framed by conifers, is coming a sense of wonder and cosmic possibilities, overlaid with the text of a poem reading, “When the night wind makes the pine trees creak And the pale clouds glide across the dark sky, Go out my child, go out and seek Your soul: The Eternal I. - Jane Goodall, The Old Wisdom”

My friend Minerva is always there to help inspect my work. I love her for it! ❤️🌸🧶🌻

A white and grey adult cat named Minerva is pawing at a crocheted flower made by her owner. She is clearly inspecting them and is interested in them. The flowers are placed in a wooden basket.

I love my echo chamber where everyone values the humanity of other people and enjoys the arts.

“We the People” isn’t just a poetic preamble; it’s the foundational claim of our sovereignty. The Constitution doesn’t start “We the Government” or “We the Elite.” It starts by asserting that all authority flows from the people, and that government exists by their consent —it’s a radical principle.

Minerva is tolerating her first St. Patrick's Day as a Duffy. Love her. 🍀 ❤️ 💚

A few people have shared this here today, so I thought I’d post it.
The rage you are feeling comes from the same place inside your heart as the love. This is why you refuse to accept a world where cruelty reigns and the fire consumes all. You have known hope and joy and kindness like you have known water. And justice is a river that demands you do not give up on it. - Nikita Gill

#JimmyCarter was a very wise man.

I am blessed to have the opportunity to have had a long conversation with him before he left us.

In a sense, I'm happy that he doesn't have to see this happening to our democracy

Betty Buckley sang Memory at The Red Bucket Follies this afternoon. If I were a poet I could describe how exquisitely beautiful it was. She is staggeringly talented. That song is not the song we cringe over. In Betty’s hands it is heart wrenching glory.

Life's a mess sometimes. A #crochet sheep for you... I've been focusing on making these all year for sentimental reasons. I love them. ❤️🐑
