The fairs, the outdoor bazaars, are conversation too. We are getting something from one another, giving by our presence. Passing it along to the next ones we meet. Touching in a glance, a word, a breath.

I have been enjoying Braiding Sweetgrass. It also touches and gives a lot of thinking work, and so it is going deliciously slowly.
What is it about this book? It draws me in. It makes for me a give and touch place for holding the world. My world. It challenges me to exchange notions of a flow for taking part, for being home, milling about. For passing along, reciprocity, gratitude, drawing out, giving attention, giving care, giving coeur. Conversation is heart space. Blood.
