Rose, Christa, Meggie, natalie, aviva, and Rachel,

Seeing these beautiful comments for the first time. Such generosity. I’m not sure why but I woke up today needing to return to something and here is where I came? One of the lines about my own margins changing on me was working on me… maybe time to revise these another time and see if you all would be open to holding what’s changed as you so generously held this work too.

Grateful that this place is still holding you. Holding still holding change. Welcoming you to share whatever revisions yearn to be reflected here in a fresh post that references this one or however you choose, if that feels right. Meeting these eyes you've named and others eager to hold.

What a gorgeous listen and read this morning. Such a beautiful rumination on our tree friends. I also enjoyed the ending note on what inspired and informed Makshya’s process. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for sharing Makshya! I love the way you weave solitude and flora in these words and the partnered figures in the illustrations add to a sense of sweet longing. Sending you love and cool breezes these days 💕
