I love this poem so much, Julia. That imagine of the Cardinal feeding the Sparrow moves me to tears everything I think about it. Thank you for these beautiful words. They so lovingly capture what I wish for us all.

When my friend @Rachel Macy Stafford shared this story, it absolutely melted me, Jenna. We have so much to learn from nature. Love you, dear Jenna. xo

Your pen to Grace's ears. Would that such solidarity and happy interdependency were as instinctive and everyday to our species as this poem would have it be. Thank you for giving me something to aim for, a tweaking of thought back toward compassion and away from the rage which has hobbled it of late.
