in 2012 I wrote a post abt how trust is the foundation to having solid relationships - it's a post about my kiddo who at the time was turning 18 & how we had been on 3 intergenerational collectives & i should write a book called Trust Kids!! (book took 10 yrs to come out but hey, seeds take time!!)

my new tree friend... aka I moved to a new city in the summer, fell into a deep depression & now coming out of it im like where are my friends?

the art was made by someone who read Joyful Militancy -- it's a cherished gift but the words hit hard these days even tho i still believe it to be true.
