Reader remarks
As a caregiver of a dear man I am losing slowly, and have had for too short a time, your words touched me just when I have been feeling frustrated and angry at the situation. Your words helped me reframe the experience. I will tend to my self care more "carefully." (The Wild Now)

What I've learned about love & loss
“Aliveness is inside and outside.
​
Yes. Aliveness is this ‘I’ who travels through the world one thought at a time, mind-steps. Aliveness is also the world itself.
​
Aliveness is the ravenous late-summer baby birds. Aliveness is the insects, who, when not being poked into a bird belly, live at most a year, and some, like a mayfly, only hours after lifting on new wings. Aliveness is soil and sea and slugs leaving their shimmery paths on the sidewalk.
​
Aliveness is also longing. More than just wanting what or whom we can or can’t have, longing is how we keep going.
​
Longing is one of the long shadows love casts
​
What lives must want to live. Even the cell, tiny and mindless, is designed with the purpose of being alive.
​
Aliveness is inside and outside. That means you and I are in this together.”
​
— from "What makes you feel your aliveness?" in The Wild Now e-journal.
