I loved this, Cameron! The camp I grew up at has a beautiful (and giant) ammonite fossil that is, to this day, my favorite find on a hike! I’ll find a pic for you ❤️
And your lovely description of our past selves and cells made me think of Teresa of Avila’s Interior Castle. The animals have it all figured out - carrying castles on our back!
Your syllables’s author may be an introvert in extrovert clothes; they, however, are extroverted ticklers of our souls, dancing playfully in our midst, seasoning our inner conversations with insightful delight.
What a way to start my morning 😍 What a powerful image of the interior life, I will want to sit with these words. And I’m reading this after I played with my son this morning at breakfast with a puzzle Valentine’s Day card, with a snail carrying a heart-shaped shell that below the puzzle pieces revealed a cozy living area with a tea party and heart decorations everywhere. “Look at all the hearts!”, my child said in awe.
Amen, and thank you. -- "Think of all the selves you’ve been. Think of all the places where you have felt at home, especially the ones you’ve created yourself. Think of all the ways you have welcomed your own growth. You carry them all with you, your own sacred relics."
This was so beautiful.
