"I love that I grew up with..."

Liz@smithdrygoods.bsky.social · 5d ago

Mom, 92, wasn’t feeling well, she skipped dinner, so I went to check on her & she said she was thinking of poems. Then she recited two Robert Frost classics from memory. #caregiving I love that I grew up with art, poetry, classical music, literature, languages. It was a great 20th century life.

I want children to know what it feels like to catch tadpoles in a stream,climb a tree,hear frogs after the rain and watch butterflies drift across a meadow. I want more parks, more hiking trails, more protected wilderness and more places where nature is left alone simply because it deserves to exist

"What if you just talked to your children..."

Navalny, in prison: “I don’t for a second regret it… the only thing we should fear is we’ll surrender our homeland to be plundered by a gang of liars, thieves & hypocrites. That we will surrender without a fight, voluntarily, our own future and the future of our children.”
