the idea for this blog started when i began the wilderness awareness school's "30 day sit spot challenge", an event designed to get people sitting out at one "sit spot" every day, at least 20 minutes a day, for 30 days. here is my journal of those sits, and of my continued sits.
Sat near our compost heap, under the big pine.
Coming and going, I heard the snow scratching across the snow as the wind blew it across the land, NE to SW.
Trees - what an explosion of life, straight up from the earth.
Pines - what an explosive shape of that life, all outwards from their center.
I wanted to kiss everything around me, the twigs of the blackberries, the wet bark of the trees, the snow, the space between me and everything. So grateful to have that empty space to be in.
Peaceful to be out alone in the dark, husband and child snuggled in bed together in the house.
