Thank you @stephenking.bsky.social for the gift of your fabulous story about the multitudes that Chuck (and all of us) contains. And to the wonderful cast and crew that brought it to life. One of the best movies ever. I needed that today. 🙏🤍

Liverwort at last! Blooming atop the river bank. E. Central Illinois.

I live down the river road, at the end of 7 crossroads.

My Full Moon edition of Luminaria: Pebbles in the Moonlight is now available on Substack. I hope you’ll join me there on the spiral path, fellow Traveler. carolehays.substack.com/p/i-already-...

I am surrounded by 7 similar owls currently. The Queen must be very interested in the goings on here. 🦉

When you seek Goddess,
May you always know

She is in every seed and every star,
She is in every stone and every bone,
She is the energy that binds the universe together.

She is everything.
