Links and thoughts

Hi Everyone,

I hope this finds you all well.

Great photos! Thanks to those of you who posted. (Please post more, if you have them.)

Links to a few things I think should be up here.

I continue to be amazed at the shift that has taken place in me. In the day-to-day I often notice myself noticing, naming, and applying the principles of permaculture....

For example, I notice myself noticing 'edges' everywhere, in the natural world, our person-made cities etc., in relationships, and within my own actions and thought processes, when feelings or ideas bounce up against each other. I may notice myself paying more attention to the relationships I have in my life.Or, I notice a deeper yearning for, and commitment to, creating and living in community in a more comprehensive way. Just a couple of examples.

Hugs,
Jude
