This writing is so brilliant, the way you see the world helps me to see the world and love it like you do. 💛

I am currently too shallow to prepare and eat an animal killed by traffic, too cushioned by white collar and couch. In your exploits with hawk and flame I see truth and depth, and I remember past me, child me, who would skin rabbits hit and harvested by my mother in her VW bug, and examine their raw organs to see how they worked. Thank you for re connecting me to my past through your present.

I felt to eat an owl I accidentally hit one night… deep dark red meat. I have a strong connection to owl magic now too. Xx

I often meditate on the idea of a bird residing in my heart with the ability to carry off with my dreams and sorrows. Thank you for this beautiful reflection ♥️

Wow! I've just subscribed to your Substack so this is the first story from you that has appeared in my inbox. And what a tale it is - so richly told, so evocative. Thank you. I'm looking forward to more. (And yes, I'm one of the people who 'met' you through Alone. I'm so glad you won because the way you were out there, the way you embraced being there and loving the place rather than trying to beat it and the other contestants, made a winner of you from the very beginning. x

I accept. I am honoured and grateful. I feel the fingers of the wind in my feathers... I shall dream tonight -- and fly with you.
