...very appreciative of all who have asked me anything so far...and to all who might still read this and ask anything also...my plan is to think thoughtfully on all you have asked and to sum it all in a future post...this was incredibly helpful friends...

My question, do you know what a good person you are? Not trying to kiss butt, but, I am not sure you know your value. That's also a softball question, cuz it's yes or no. So here's another one, if you could have any do overs in your life so far, would you have any? What would it be?

+1 (or more, since, ya know, I contain multitudes) on the "Do you know what a good person you are?" "Good" which I would describe as kind, inclusive, accepting, appreciative.

Thank you for asking. Thank you for asking me to ask. This morning, after a tiny rebuff to my effort to participate in making breakfast, I asked myself again, What is this YEARNING to participate, to collaborate, to make shit happen that feels good? Just this week, publishing here on Substack for the first time in over a year, asking for collaborative dreaming and play, I'm feeling that unbearable lightness of being loose in the world, when I want to belong to a chain gang, a murmuration of birds, working a collective project, relating to the movement of the Whole in resonant coherence, cooperating with you, a wingtip away, asking me, me asking you: What are we loving into being? I feel it. What does it look like to you?

Is the thing you work on what you want to work on most?

(and, I guess more a question for myself: Why do I keep thinking about that we basically "used to be" neighbors!?)

How did you decide one day to add so many photos in your Substack articles? (I like the photos but how did this even come about?)

If the world decided to move a famous building into your neighbourhood for tourist reasons, which one would it be and why?

1. Did you take that crow photo? How can I get my hands on it???

2. I very much understand the desire to put out a signal. I often don’t even understand why, but I’m inspired by a Bruce Mau quote about how putting out signals helps you attract the people you want to work with and who want to work with you. Do you know his work? (Does that count as a question!?)

3. Have you considered taking a week (or more) off writing your newsletter!?

OK, I'm going to ask you a question.

"If I were to ask you a question, what would that question be?"

TIA,

PS: I enjoy your pics!
