🌴 TREE 120: It’s good to be outside

over hills and under trees
there is space
be quiet
let the noise inside fade
breathe slowly
to the rhythm of deep time
these stones dissolving
over centuries
are not anxious
these ancient trees
draw life from soil
made of trees
more ancient still
these streams
have nurtured
all you see
for longer than
than eyes have been seeing
stay a little longer
they will nurture you too

Friday notice: Join me on Cappuccino!

Cappuccino is a nifty micro-podcasting app. It lets you record ‘beans’ that are three minutes or less and share them with friends or to groups. Cappuccino packages up the beans up nicely and delivers them to your phone at 8 AM every morning.

I’ve started a group called ‘TREE falls in a FOREST’ (obvs). Right now it’s just me. For the last week I’ve been sharing short, random thoughts with myself. Now, I’d like to share them with you. Even better, you can share your thoughts with the group.

If you’re interested, reply to this email and tell me. I’ll send you an invitation to the group. We’ll do it for as long as it’s fun.

Happy weekend!
Jeff

I like how this song reminds us of our shared humanity and also the breathing part.
