Thank you for refusing to be seduced by 'numbers' and shrinking the qualitative to mere quantity. Every thing that 'counts' can not be counted. Counting books insults the dimensional experience of reading. And re-reading. Analogously, when someone shows me a picture on their phone of a sunset, I appreciate their rapture and I thank them. While I silently brood: really, please don't insult the phenomena, just attend to it, just experience it.
How many heart-hours of boiling kettles and talking true? Friend, this is the life moments I heartbreakingly, lovingly, tenderly share with you. ❤️ Here’s to more of them in 2026, dearest one!
(this resonates as I jokingly calculated the number of folds of paper I made!)
Some excellent and thought provoking questions. Thank you!

I love these questions and the life upon which it makes me reflect.
