“When it rains in Paris, it bleeds
into swift little gutters.
You can see your reflection
over its mercury embryo.”

“ECONOMICS
We borrow our atoms.
The universe owns them.
The universe borrows our love and wonder.
Those belong to us.”
― Jarod K. Anderson, Field Guide to the Haunted Forest

“When we die, they may bury us or collect our ashes, but remember this: from baby teeth to skin cells and everything in between, most of the matter that has worn your name is already spread throughout the world. We bury our remains in the soil of our lifetimes.

Can you feel it? So many of the cells that have formed the community of your body have returned to nature. Most of the water that has fueled your life has returned to the sea. The substance of your form is not fixed. It flows like a river to and from the wilderness.”
― Jarod K. Anderson, Field Guide to the Haunted Forest

“You may feel separated from the natural world, but just look at what you are. Look at how you live. You are not born to this place. You are born of this place.”
― Jarod K. Anderson, Field Guide to the Haunted Forest
