I keep learning that I don’t know what I think I know. Thanks Kathleen for your wisdom and helping us all learn the lessons of nature.

Beautifully written, Kathleen. And an honor to find my words among yours. Thank you. This is a good reminder that in our musings upon ourselves as stardust we should remember that everything else, including our fellow species, is too. Eliot and his peach, the hemlock and the reef: all are matter and energy living in relationship with our own.

You've given me a lot to think about today. You and T.S. Eliot.
