Thank you to Luba Ertel for this photo.
Ch. 18 In the Footsteps of Nanabozho 🌿
#RobinWallKimmerer asks how we might walk as Nanabozho did - learning from the land with humility, restraint & gratitude. To be indigenous to place is to live as if Earth were teacher.

Took a day off reading (I know, why?!) but adulting called. While enjoying Ch. 17 of #BraidingSweetgrass 🌿 I found myself ogling other readers’ book covers in curious wonder. Straight to my TBR they go—thanks for sharing! 📚💙

"Imagination is one of our most powerful tools. What we imagine, we can become.
...if the Honourable Harvest were the law of the land today, as it was in our past."
If only and in hope. <3

Ch. 16 Maple Nation 🌿
In a world of taking, maples teach generosity - giving freely of themselves. Kimmerer’s vision of citizenship rooted in reciprocity feels like hope worth holding.🫶🏻

I'll be in the city tomorrow.
My TBR pile is practically a second bookshelf, but those new releases keep whispering.
This is going to be tough! 📚😩

"What would it be like … to live with that heightened sensitivity to the lives given for ours? … you begin to feel yourself awash in gifts.” — Ch14. p. 154
This invitation to gratitude is soul-shaking.

Book 6/102 - also in progress
Loving #TheArtofGratitude by #MeredithGaston 🌸 I didn’t at first, it felt a bit like a workbook, but paired with Braiding Sweetgrass it’s a good combo. Together they’re grounding & heart-lifting. I am grateful.

People often ask me what one thing I would recommend to restore relationship between land and people. My answer is almost always, ‘Plant a garden.’ … Something essential happens in a vegetable garden. It’s a place where if you can’t say ‘I love you’ out loud, you can say it in seeds. And the land will reciprocate, in beans. - Chapter 12, pages 126–127
Epiphany in the beans. Ch. 12 of #BraidingSweetgrass 🌿
Oh, my heart. Full of heart-songs, truths, and a spine-tingling ache for dirt under nails and deep rhythm with the Earth.
How good it is to long for something this real.

Just finished #TigerEyes by #JudyBlume 💙 A quiet, powerful story of grief & resilience I missed as a teen; it hits perfectly now. The characters' strength stays with me. A gentle reminder that healing often begins with connection.
Book 4/102 ✅
#Booksky #ReadingAllTheBooksOnMyBookshelf #CryingInADHD
Just finished "You Are a Badass" 💥
Book 3/102 ✅
I enjoyed "You Are a Badass" overall, though I didn’t connect with it until Chapter 17. From there, the heart of the book emerged. Insightful and encouraging, a lot to reflect on. I'm glad I read it.
