Besides the obvious health risks, what kind [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Another holiday under the hood and spring is officially underfoot. A fresh mow of the yard has revealed the yearly crop of meadow garlic. Sending up its scraps like a confession—each leaf a whisper of forgotten gardens. The concentrated wild onion is a surprisingly delicate combination with the lemony fresh magnolia. Maybe the world’s quietest [&#8230;]]]></description>

I’m struggling with my personal loss, but so thankful for all that’s been gained. When I started this over a year ago, I didn’t know what to expect and now I find myself looking forward to those check-ins. I’ve [&#8230;]]]></description>

Taking yet another tumble, down the stairs this time around, I’m feeling less confident in my walking abilities than I use to be. There’s a ghost in the room. Are you real or just in my head? All these things I should&#8217;ve said. I&#8217;m [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I’ve always been intrigued by the devil. Not in the new age Christian idea of an eternal evil, but the idea to ask “why?” The push to break chains, it’s only natural, is it not? Kali is the destroyer of illusion, the breaker of ego. This feels more devil to me than Satan’s prince of [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Seeing a new therapist. It’s been enlightening in its own gentle ways. I’m always grateful for a perspective change. I’ve never had a male therapist before and already I’m getting somewhere with the usual suspects in my melancholy mind. In the early morning, I catch a view that stops my madness completely and lets me [&#8230;]]]></description>

Not with a bristle and bustle to and fro, but a gentle meander through the forest of time. One of those train rides through the countryside, but with [&#8230;]]]></description>

While the news every day brings more reasons to feel lament. To counter this, I’m imagining a time nearly forgotten. When families gathered around the fire for the warmth of stories and the comfort [&#8230;]]]></description>

It kind of matches the chaotic vibe lately. From this audio chaos, I tried a new style of doodling. I find myself enjoying the different angles to view it. [&#8230;]]]></description>
