Book cover for Tom Lake
You could spend years in a New York apartment never knowing the people who live two feet away from you, but live on an orchard in Michigan and you will use the word neighbor to refer to every person for miles.

Till your mud settles and the water is clear?
Can you remain unmoving
Till the right action arises by itself?”

Nicola Jane Hobbs
“Growing up, I never knew a relaxed woman. Successful women? Yes. Productive women? Plenty. Anxious and afraid and apologetic women? Heaps of them. But relaxed women? At-ease women? Women who don't dissect their days into half hour slots of productivity? Women who prioritize rest and pleasure and play? Women who aren't afraid to take up space in the world? Women who give themselves unconditional permission to relax? Without guilt? Without apology? Without feeling like they need to earn it? I'm not sure I've ever met a woman like that. But I would like to become one.”
Nicola Jane Hobbs

John O'Donohue
“Unfinished Poem
I would love to live like a river flows, carried by the surprise of its own unfolding.”
John O'Donohue
