Thank you so much, Kimberly. This means more than you know since I spent so many many years learning to squelch my voice and write marketing speak. I have a hard time trusting myself at times and have learned to rely on tears - happy, these words are full of love tears. That’s how I know I’ve touched that authentic place within myself. It is wonderful to know you feel it too!

I'm so happy you have your feathered friends. It seemed like a very satisfying social gathering.

I DO seem to be having a lot of conversations with them of late! I had another meet and greet with a hawk the other day. It was mesmerizing but I feel so inadequate and dense sometimes. I wish I could understand more. I’m more in tune with Dolphins and horses.

Wow! You have that gift. Are you bad with electronics? My friend can summon animals in the wild but put her near a computer and it’s toast🤣

I’m ok with computers mostly because of using them for my artwork and to build 3D stories. And I don’t know about the gift. Mostly I think animals know I love them and so are patient and tolerant of my density - lol

Ha! Yes you're a pure soul. Maybe you found the secret, using the computer for art cancels out the short circuiting energy of my boss.😆

I love this piece, Jena! Your willingness to approach the non-humans among us inspires me. (They're often so much more interesting than we are, don't you think?) Your descriptions are wonderful--rich and humorous. I laughed out loud when the one goose gave you a loud honk, and thought to myself, maybe they went to the parking lot so they could honk with impunity!

Hahaha honk with impunity. I am convinced that the animals in my life are doing their best to school me or at the least remind me of our common light. I just wish I was better able to tune in. I’ll keep chronicling my adventures. I’m so glad to have you reading along. HUGS!

Love this! I'm not able to restack it for some reason... Might be a glitch in the app, I'll try again later.
