Our economy, our medicine, and the air we breathe are all gifts from healthy ecosystems. Denying the crisis of ecocide means denying our fundamental dependence on the natural world. We can't build a future on a broken foundation.

Always remember that listening to music can be the entire activity. Put on headphones. Blast it through speakers. Close your eyes and just listen.

Listening to music is not a background activity. It can be the entire journey, and it's worth the time.

Today ...

- Still sick; throat still sore and swollen, despite almost a full week of bed rest, vitamins, soups, and soda water (and a trip to the doctor).
- T-i-r-e-d.

+ Planning my leave for 2026; discovered last year I benefit from taking extra leave during the year.
+ Bed rest has been nice.

Did not think I'd be seeing this year out with a painful viral throat infection, but here we are. 🫤

The pines guard the silence with green hands.
The lake drinks the sky, a mirror of deep thirst.
Here, where the air smells of resin and distance, I love you.
The mountains sleep, but my heart is awake,
beating against the vast, blue cage of the afternoon...
