Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
3/14: snow geese & a spirit mound
Our rambling today took us into South Dakota, and all along our route we saw snow geese flying overhead. Thousands upon thousands of them; I've simply never seen such complicated yet delicate wheeling in the sky on such a massive scale. And one of our destinations was a strangely shaped chalk hill which Lewis & Clark had visited and which Native Americans had told them was a home to little spirits. We climbed up the hill, and though we saw no little spirits we enjoyed the wind, the view, and the cries of the geese from above.
my daughters very useful clarity around an issue i was dealing with, so happy to have raised two wonderfully insightful kind, honest young women...such a blessing
