how so many things are True.  All at the same Time.

a quote of Brene Brown        " in order to empathize with someone's experience you must be willing to believe them as they see it and not how you imagine their experience to be".

"in order to empathize with someone's experience                                                                                                                                                 you must be willing to believe them                                                                                                                                                                          as they see it and not                                                                                                                                                                                                     how you imagine their experience to be"

i am taking my "thinking" and my urge to understand    differently.  …as an honest and worthy use of time.   I am totally in love with investigative journalists and writers….like Robin Diangelo whose  "part two" book, Nice Racisim  is out and being found by some as too much.   I love the cover.  Tied up with a Bow.    I haven't read it,  but i look for opinion pieces and interviews and pod casts.   I am no longer  feeling like it's a waste of time.  and climate change….these fires,  the Disturbance of Earth manifesting.  Even the withdrawal of american military from Afghanistan.   

as soon as Alyssia can,  she will show me how to put links here.    I will link some of what i find here.   instead of asking that something be Googled.   I know that the chances of  things being read and watched  increase exponentially with a link.  

What does any of the above have to do with clothmaking and drawing and collage and reciprocity with plants????

Everything.   

so i think i will.   There are two things that will prevent it….one is that it will use more Juice from the batteries that run the phone,  my tool for Finding,   and this laptop….the addition of more words….and TWO…..i went to Utube….to Oh Brother Where Art Thou,   the song…Keep on the Sunny Side. (i should have a link) ….and yup….there it was….could be the sound track for cloth  blogs…..? or is that my misinterpretation?????   

When Emrie was here the other evening,  she'd gotten in  trouble and her mother put her in time out  which was to sit on the ground  facing the horse trailer,  her back to us.  she was sobbing.   But in the middle  of the sobbing….said….Old Nana….How did this hill come here?   I said…i'm not sure what you mean…and She repeated…How did this  hill COME here….she is turning FOUR this month,  the year for these kinds of questions and i thought…..i can try to tell her about how the Earth forms its self….geology…..and/or i can tell her a Story of how the great rocks decided to come to the surface.  Both would be true.  But i need to say it that way…  This is one truth…the Geology as we can know it so far…Science….and the Story,  what our Heart knows.   Two Truths.

there was a Fine  tree frog….size of a quarter…in Talkie's water bowl under the step.
