Beginning . . .

Welcome to my curiosities page / blog, where there will be eclectic explorations. I consider myself a learner, bridge-builder, begin-again-er, amateur (lover) of life, future ancestor finding and making home on this precious planet with fellow inhabitants -- a deep bow to my teachers: all two-legged and more- to many-legged; winged ones and belly travelers; finned, flippered, tentacled; movers and cruisers and danglers; dwellers among the elements; and the elements themselves, the substrate of biomes whose beauty nurtures our stillness and action.

In writing, I offer stories, wonderings and wanderings that affirm our shared humanity, creatureliness, desire for a meaningful life, and flourishing that benefits all.
