Actually making ART activates our brain's reward pathway. Even doodling!
(But, you probably suspected that.)

August 8 is #InternationalCatDay.
My rescue cat. The shelter said no one would even visit the black ones.
Named her Snow White (I study folktales).

Dolores Huerta was a hero of mine.
When she co-founded the National Farm Workers Association in 1962, people thought Dolores was crazy. “How are you going to organize farm workers,” she remembered being asked. "They are poor, powerless immigrants.” But that’s exactly what she did, helping thousands of migrant laborers working in brutal conditions make their voices heard, and demand something better.
Dolores spent the rest of her life fighting for marginalized communities, even as she herself faced sexism and abuse — including, as she revealed earlier this year, from Cesar Chavez and others within her own movement. She also came up with a pretty good slogan, “Si, se puede” — Yes, we can — that I too often get credit for. But as usual, Dolores got there first.
Michelle and I are thinking of Dolores’s family, the people whose lives she changed, and everyone who drew inspiration from her example.

The face of a dog who is absolutely appalled that you’d even suspect her. She’s just as shocked as you are ! 😂Possibly more so. And she’d like to know what time dinner is, once this unpleasant business is behind us.

Somewhere, even today,
a running girl loses her glass slipper,
a curious boy climbs a beanstalk to the sky,
a grandfather begins speaking, "Once upon a time . . ."

If you create the habitat, nature will find its way home. For nearly 20 years, we’ve farmed sustainably and regeneratively, planting trees, restoring habitats and making room for wildlife. And this is the reward. A magnificent tawny owl, just outside my bedroom window. What a privilege to see such a beautiful wild creature so close to home. Give nature a little space, a helping hand and time, and it has a wonderful way of moving in.
Sometimes the most precious things we grow on a farm aren’t crops.

Some day, you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.

If you ignore the dragon, it will eat you.
If you defy the dragon it will overpower you.
But if you ride the dragon,
you will take advantage of its strength and power.

Give a child the tools to color their anger, as well as their love.
