I named a plant in the hallway Ursula. I told everyone in the house to say hello to her when they walk by. I'm in bed and I just heard my son's door open and him say "Hello, Ursula." 🤣

My mother's life force was her fluid and complementary belief in Shintoism, Buddhism, and a loving Christianity, in the animating force in all things in the natural world. I grew up thanking stepping stones for carry the weight of my steps, saying hello to the wind, the singing birds, and being gentle as I climbed the limbs of trees. You see yourself as part of a whole, the whole as part of you, and thus always embracing and always being embraced by the world. Say hello to Ursula for me.

@pattykimura I will absolutely tell her. We are all part of nature and we need to take care of each other.

@tanyakaroli It was so funny to hear from bed! He said it slowly and in deep voice. 🤣

@StillIRise1963 When my son and his partner were visiting at Thanksgiving, she came to ask what should be done about the cricket in the shower. ‘I know there are some insects you don’t kill; is this one of them?’ 🥰 and I had chased the cricket before they arrived 🦗 so this time he was exiled to the garage

@jacquiharper I think it says a lot that we grew up indiscriminately killing bugs, and now we set them free. 🥰

@StillIRise1963 @jacquiharper Did none of the kids read ‘A Cricket in Times Square’ in third grade? 🥹

@jacquiharper 😃 I forgot all about that!

@StillIRise1963 Hello Ursula! Meet Edith, she's our tropical plant and thus, a thirsty bitch.

StillIRise1963,
@StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

@kv Hi Edith! Ursula is very happy to have a friend. Ursula says she's not super thirsty, but sun is her thing.🌞

@StillIRise1963 what a beaut!

@StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

@kv She's coming back to her former glory slowly. She was in a room with limited sunlight and lost a lot of her leaves. By the end of summer, she's going to be great.🌿

@kv Edith is quite lovely too!

@StillIRise1963 There are certain trees I high-five when I go on my walk.

HEY URSULA!

@researchbuzz 🤣 I'm going to pass your hello on to Ursula. I think it will help perk her up! She's made some amazing strides.

@StillIRise1963 I remember a favorite Science Fair Project was talking nicely to one group of plants nad not talking to the "control" group :P

@geonz I asked my husband to take care of this plant and he almost killed it. So, I'm rehabbing her. She's in a big window and she needs conversation.😃
