A THOUSAND FORESTS
On recent walks through the woods around my home, I’m noticing acorns of various shapes and sizes. White Oak, Red Oak, Water Oak, Blackjack Oak, Turkey Oak — deer find most of them quickly and leave only empty shells, like discarded beanie caps, behind.
They are a sure sign that autumn, my favorite season, is upon us.
The cupule of the Sawtooth acorn reminds me of doll-sized dreadlocks.

“the best portion of a good person’s life is ‘the little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.”
― Theo of Golden

“It’s hard enough to define what art is, much less ‘good art.’ I wonder if there is such a thing. Maybe there are just good responses. But I guess if a work of art makes us see something familiar in a new way or makes us feel something we ought to have felt all along or shows us our place in the world more clearly, maybe then it qualifies as ‘good.’ If it makes us better somehow, maybe that’s what gives it value.”
― Theo of Golden

“for anything to be good, truly good, there must be love in it. I’m not even sure I know fully what that means, but the older I get, the more I believe it. There must be love for the gift itself, love for the subject being depicted or the story being told, and love for the audience. Whether the art is sculpture, farming, teaching, lawmaking, medicine, music, or raising a child, if love is not in it — at the very heart of it — it might be skillful, marketable, or popular but I doubt it is truly good. Nothing is what it’s supposed to be if love is not at the core.”
