I was delighted to find a new set of weekly musings shared. They are a gift that I love to read. Your snow adventure and the making of new friends was delightful! Reminded me of adventures at playgrounds with my 3 daughters. Friendship is such a Light in this world. Right now, in America, we can use all the Light we can find! Thank you for finding the time in your busy life to share. Your color pallets are stunningly beautiful! 😎🌹

This was stunning, Meera. That image of a child laying down next to yours without needing permission—that’s the kind of raw, unfiltered humanity I wish we all kept into adulthood. The line “friendship… calms your spirit like a colorless sky” lingered with me. Thank you for reminding us that new connection doesn’t need a backstory—it just needs openness.

Also, that bit about cabinet knobs? That hit too. Small changes as resistance. Beauty as rebellion. You’re doing sacred work here. 🌨️
