“Watch this as soon and as often as you can. I just spent four days off grid on an island off the coast of Maine and the scope of nature in those days was so vast I will be processing it forever - Mary’s words are salve for the future Gratis on YouTube right now.”

“Starting a new rec collection of things I want to watch / read / explore / etc. First in this collection is Mary Oliver’s documentary. What a gorgeous human and I think of her words at least one time a day.”
