  2. It was early, which has always been my hour to begin looking at the world

    and of course, even in the darkness, to begin listening into it,

    especially under the pines where the owl lives and sometimes calls out

    as I walk by, as he did on this morning. So many gifts!

    Photograph: Lottie, a young brown spaniel, in the stream behind my studio this morning, paying attention to the good green world around her. The happier she is, the longer her tongue is. The lines by Mary Oliver are from her poem It Was Early (published in Evidence: Poems, Beacon Press, 2010); all rights reserved by the author's estate.

  3. This is just about the only thing I can cope with at the moment. The puppy looks exactly like my dog friend that I hang out with occasionally. I’m just gonna be watching this for the next few months 👋🏻😭👋🏻

  4. “When you are quiet, the silence blows against your mind and etches away everything that is soft and unimportant. What is left is what is real: pure awareness and the very hardest questions.” - Kathleen Dean Moore (from Earth's Wild Music)

    A quiet day in the studio: Lottie, our brown spaniel, looking out the big windows of the hillside cabin that is my work space. I'm at my desk nearby. The air is thick with the particular silence that comes just before the rain.
